My younger brother called me yesterday afternoon and told me that his mother-in-law committed suicide on Tuesday. My sister-in-law is an only child and her mother was an only child so everything will fall on them to take care of. Please pray for them and their two daughters (4 and 1) to get through this horrible time. I will be heading to Indiana this afternoon for the memorial service tomorrow.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved in this tragedy. The heartbreak and guilt when someone commits suicide is hard to imagine. I guess no one can understand why unless you have been there.

Skittles - prayers for your whole family at this very difficult time. What a terrible thing to deal with. I pray that your sister-in-law and the rest of the family can deal with the aftermath of suicide and aren't plagued with what ifs and if only...Praying for strength to see you through this time.

Friday at the Memorial Service was tough, but my sister-in-law is doing well. Several people (including my son and myself) spoke about Linda and had wonderful things to say. Thanks to everyone for their prayers. They are very much appreciated.
