A little patience for the next couple of weeks

Dear Thalpals.

Our friend Andy has suffered the terrible loss of a close and young family friend who was like a son for him.  
Please be patient over the next few weeks and give Andy an opportunity to mourn this tragic loss.  

I will do my best to answer questions during this time - as I am writing exams and papers for school it may take me time to get to them.  
Please help one another out as much as possible at this time and please continue to send prayers for Andy, his family and the family
of the young man who has been taken away too soon.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding,

Sharmin

Our prayers for Andy and his family.

This is hard time for him and his family, to overcome the loss of someone close is hard. Time will heal.

I am so sorry to hear this terrible news. Our prayers are with Andy and all the family and friends of this young man. Rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss Andy, thoughts and prayers

may God make matters easy for all the loved ones of this young man....no life is wasted, every life holds a meaning.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Andy and the family of the young man's family.

Thank you thalpals, Andy will appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers. 
He has been an ongoing and constant resource and source of support for us all - he has really made our
issues and suffering his own - it's heartbreaking to know that he is suffering. 

Thanks again for your patience - my answers will not be as thorough and informed as Andy's but I will pass on whatever information that I have acquired through my own experiences.

Thank you Sharmin...really appreciate it.

Dear Andy,

Sorry for the terrible loss.

May God give you the power to come out of this shock and may he RIP.

Thank you all for your kindness. It has been a most difficult time for me and my family, as a young man of 19 who had grown up around the corner from our house and had been best friends with my middle son and spent most weekends at our house while he was growing up and had been included on most family outings, died from exposure on a very cold night. This young man also worked for me in my store when he was home from college and was like one of my own sons. We are all heartbroken over this senseless loss. I know my sons will never look at life the same. Our lives are a flame that can be snuffed out with no warning.

I thank you all for your wishes and continued patience as I try to help my family and myself through this tragedy.

   RIP Tyler.

Thinking of you and Tyler's family. 

RIP Tyler

Oh my. RIP Tyler. I can conclude from your post as to how important member he may have been for your family, especially your Son. It's indeed very tragic to lose a friend with whom you grew up with; like he was there tomorrow and today he's not.

How come he underwent this? Was he outing at some mountains or such cold place if you don't mind me asking?

I really pray for you and his family and may God give enough to bare this big loss.

RIP Tyler. 

So sorry to hear about your loss, Andy.
