I am so sorry for your loss. Just know that he loved you and he will always be with you through his children and memories. Remember all the good times and remember to tell his children so that they will also know him. Now you must focus on your daughter who is probably feeling guilt and sadness at the same time. She is alive and she needs her mother now. I hope you can find some peace at this time. May you find the strength you need and know that I will be thinking about you and your family now and through this holiday season.

Oh God, I'm so sorry for your loss. This guy that murdered your son sounds like a psychopath. My only son was also murdered because of a minor traffic incident. The shooter had a prior gun charge and was forbidden to ever carry a gun again. But he had a loaded 45 Glock sitting on the front seat of his car and shot my poor son 4 times, twice in his back as he tried to run away. The shooter emptied all 9 rounds, the other bullets went into rush hour traffic. It was a miracle that no one else was shot also. There were no miracles for my son.

There is a group called parents of murdered children and there you won't feel so alone. In my state I go to meetings called Maryland Crime Victims Resource center. It took over two years before I went. I was a complete basket case before then. The people there understand. it's mostly women in my group. I can talk about things that would make a "normal" person cringe, but there they been through it all and completely understand.

These groups can lead you through the horror and help you with your legal rights and can give free counsel regarding conviction and trail procedings. I gave a victims impact statement at the trail and am now writing an impact statement to read to the parole hearing this April, 2011. I will have a lawyer come with me for support and guidance.

I hope the legal system is treating you with dignity and respect.

I was walking in slow motion and in a fog in the beginning. The pain is indescribable I know. I'm glad that you have other family. I hope that your daughter continues to recover.

Someday you will find peace again.

Love to you,

abby
