To All,

Thanks to everyone who posted on this thread and expressed their support and sympathy for the loss of my nephew.

Adam is at rest. We placed him in a shaded spot right across from a calm lake with some of our friends and realitives around him. He is in good company and at peace.

His parents now have to come to grips that Adam is finally gone from their lives and I hope they will be able to find peace.

Life goes on. The cycle begins anew. I only pray that peace is in our futures for a bit longer.

Thank you all again for your kind words and your thoughts. You have all been of great help and I deeply appreciate each post.

Sincerely,
Neil aka Unionblue
