Two years ago today I buried my son. Writing this brings immediate tears, but they have been with me regularly since June 26, 2019 when he took his life. My police department assisted with traffic well out of their jurisdiction. Friends and family hugged us, cooked for us, cried with us and did all they could to ease our suffering. Their efforts were appreciated more than they will ever know. But they had embarked on a task that could not succeed. Two years later I’m crying like a baby as I offer a silent prayer for Danny. If you are depressed call me, or call someone. If you know of anyone who might need help offer it. Suicide is a modern day plague that keeps on hurting. I love Danny and pray for him daily. I also pray that I could have stopped him. I pray that I will reunite with him, one day, in heaven. Danny, if love could have saved you, you would have lived forever.
