Remembering

William

In our hearts and minds every day.

****

If you know someone who has lost a loved one,
send them a note on the anniversaries,
just to let them know others have remembered too.

You can find William's story under the tab above.

  2. I have thought of your son many times during the fires at Fort McMurray. He was a very brave man.

  3. He led a life that you should be proud of.
    After loosing both parents and a wife within five years I can understand your feelings. I met Kathy in Bereavement Counseling after loosing her husband. We have since helped one another heal.
    Be Safe and Enjoy!

    It's about time.

  4. Oh I can't believe it's been a year already. May you find comfort in good memories. William sounded like an outstanding young man.

  5. Memories, photos, words, and his dream will always be with you.Sharing again with us is so special, and I believe he is looking down at all the others at Fort McMurray, continuing to do what William did.

  6. It's important to keep the anniversaries in mind. I know it's hard sometime but it's part of the journey. I think of William this summer when we have such a huge and dangerous fire in Alberta,

  10. I had no idea you had lost a son until I saw this post. I don't think I have any words really, other than the things others have said in the comments above.

  13. Feeling a little bit of your pain in my own heart, knowing that grief and sadness are normal responses to a loss such as yours, and taking just a tiny bit of it into myself. Sending you love and many virtual hugs.

  20. The world of aviation is small, and such a loss is felt by all fellow aviators and is hard to come to terms with. Deepest condolences from a fellow pilot

  23. My thoughts are with you. It was my younger brother's birthday today. This year he is not another year older. He died suddenly and alone last November and nobody knew for a week when he missed his regular Sunday phone calls. We were not always the best of friends but today I found myself remembering the fun times... And what a waste he died so young. Healthy and happy (he was neither sadly) he should have lived another 40 years.
