    I can’t even begin to imagine the pain a parent feels when losing a child.  Having 3 kids myself I don’t think I could go on. I will be there that night and really hope you and your wife get it played.  I’m sure it will be extremely powerful and emotional moment. Thanks for sharing and way to be strong.
