PDQ I will DD

*poof*

How would you help/support a family who has lost there youngest child?

[amaranth]

That is just awful. I know my aunt and uncle really appreciated the community coming to their daughter's funeral when she died in a tragic accident. It meant so much when they saw how many people cared. Are either funerals an option?

How sad I'm so sorry.

I don't know exactly what to do....maybe send a card with a gift card for a place to eat/get delivery? I'm not sure how much the family will want to see people but I imagine letting them know you are thinking of them in some way would be really appreciated. It's nice of you to think of doing something for them.

amaranth- I would possibly able to go to the second one. (The 1st one I have no personal connection with) most likely with the second one I will work the day of the funeral so that people who were closer with my coworkers could be there. I don't know.

HoneySpider- Maybe I'll see if some coworkers want to contribute and send the family something to help them get through this.

I just feel so helpless.

I didn't read this before you deleted, but the title is enough.

Huge hugs. I'm sure anything you do will be appreciated (because I know you're not insensitive!)

Huge, huge hugs. This is just so horrible. I am sure anything you do they will be grateful for <3

Thanx again ladies. Me and a few coworkers have decided to drop cards off at all three stations here and give people 4-5 days to sign them. Then a coworker and I will drive them to the couple who lost their son. This makes me feel like I'm at least doing something, even if it's not much. We are also going to make some dinners that can be frozen to them as well.
