i need good thoughts sent my way...

[Grampa]

   squared.

[fastwin]

I'm also available to chase off vultures from the lawn. I'm good with a bat!

In a sad/strange way I am glad you know who did this. I can't imagine going through life not knowing who brought death and destruction to my family or friends and not seeing them brought to justice. My faith in karma is not that strong. I'd need to see results and closure. Fortunately you at least have that.

Again, my family's thoughts and prayers go out to you. Please try and stay strong. You have the support of hundreds of people on this forum you will probably never meet in your lifetime. In a weird, hi-tech way that's pretty awesome. God bless and may peace be with you.

So sorry for your loss.  May you have the strength to deal with this horrible situation.
Good thoughts and virtual hugs being sent your way.
Be well.

i wish there was something we could say or do that would make this better.
be strong.

[DucofWestwood]

jesus christ that's terrible.  i'm so sorry.

not sure where in cali you live, but i'm in LA.  if you need something done here while you're away (e.g. pet tended to, mail picked up, etc.), let me know.

[Meerkat]

Sorry to hear about your loss.

[muskrat]

Terribly sorry.  My prayers are with you and your family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and the friends of your Mother. My mom was also murdered. It happened when I was little, but I do know some of what you are going through.

The internet is real and so are the friendships that we develop over time spent with it. This group has come together  and supported each other in some pretty amazing ways. We are here for you.

Holy damn...

I'm not near enough to Cali or Alabama to be useful in any way, but good thoughts and prayers from me to you.

I am here in town if you need anything.

[cokey]

Stay strong..  i think the ducs on the lawn idea is actually a good one...  let smome locals know, i doubt they would hesitate.

once again i can't thank you all enough..i dont have much time during the day so i read the board at night when i finally have some quiet time. Your messages mean so much and help immeasurably.

Today i finally spoke to the investigators at the anniston police dept. I was getting frustrated because i had never actually spoke to anyone from the police. I had called several times and left messages but had never received a call back. So today i just went into their building. they told me that my brother was stabbed in the back first, so my brother probably didn't even know it was coming.

I also had to go to his job to fill out some forms and collect his last check. I also collected all of his belongings from his locker. That was the worst part. Its just so final.

Tomorrow one of my nephews comes to town and a cousin will be here Monday. That's good and bad because i feel like i need to comfort them and im not very good at accepting the comfort in return. I know they would understand if i break down, but it makes me feel guilty because i dont want them to feel worse.

I also had to deal with the insurance adjuster for my moms renters insurance. I somehow need to itemized every single item in my moms house. There's just so much paperwork for everything..

I guess that's enough venting for tonight. Again thank you all so much
