Prayers sent your way.  So very sorry to hear your story.  Honor his memory and live every day to its fullest for both of you.  Hang tough.

Sorry for your loss, man.  I've been there as well.  Lost my brother in a car accident when he was seventeen, and lost my nephew five days before his first birthday.  Combined, these events have made me extremely overprotective of my kids as I'm the only one in my family who hasn't lost a son.

You and your family are in my thoughts and, as others have said, if there's anything we can do to help, let us know.

this hurts just to read,, I cant image your situation at all,, best just keep alive the memories and hunt down every video or family film with him in it and make sure to watch often.  that sounds odd but actually it will help.

There are tons of videos of him on YouTube from just random stuff he did that my dad posted.  Family vacations, holidays, cars... you name it.

It's tough... it really is.  Being the way technology is nowadays, friends and family share their pictures/videos of him.  And it's great.  He was fearless.

Condolences to you and yours GDawg.  Keep close to family and friends is my best advice. Lost my dad last year. Changed me. Hard stuff for sure. I'm not much for redundant talking....but that talking/remembrance along with my faith and some time is what helped take the edge off for me. Peace be with you and with him.
