I lost my first serious love 27 years ago when I was engaged at 20. She was killed in a car wreck. I am blessed with a wonderful wife now and family, but she still has her lil part in my heart. It was my mom that pulled me through that.

It's a terrible pain...again, I am truly sorry

Armistead -

My thoughts are with you, mate. I know it's hard, even when it is expected. Go easy on yourself for the next few weeks - believe it or not, it'll sneak up on you when you least expect it - it did for me after I lost my mother in November.
