Darren, I just want to say how much I admire you for the strength you have shown, and the grace with which you have handled this most tragic event that could ever happen to a parent. We will all be right here as you continue through the grief of Owens' passing. Lean on us anytime you need to, and please don't ever feel like you're overstepping. It sounds like your family is strong and supportive, but your Moparts family will continue to pray for strength and healing for you and your family.

Darren, you shared an important chapter of your life with us. Not many have the courage to do so. There are a few of us on MOPARTS who can directly relate with you. I hope I speak for the masses here when I say I feel like MOPARTS is a LOT more than just a car site. It is home and family, as well.
Thank you for sharing your final call as Owen's father with us, as well. I, for one, feel it is an important part of closure - I am sure many others here do/will, as well.
Peace be with you...

I'm so sorry for you and your family's loss. I'm sitting here crying for you, as I cannot imagine what it would be like to lose my daughter.

Very respectable thing you did. I know I'd more than likely not been able to do that. I will say I never in my wildest dreams thought I could stand up at my moms prayer service as well as funeral and talk from the heart but I did. I think when we lose a loved one we go through tough sad times but sometimes our loved ones fill us with courage and that's what gets us through things. You will notice Owen a lot in your everyday life going forward. There will be signs that you will just feel in your bones he's talking to you. There will be times of pure joy and happiness as well as sorrow that will just come on. It will be Owen feeling things through you. Cherish these moments. I remember after mom passed away I was sitting out front if her house. All by my myself no wind dead calm. I talked out loud to her and asked for a sign she was ok. At that moment I got this chill and a rush of air past me. Trees all stayed still. I believe in my heart it was her. So not to be taking any light away from
Owen but please take the time to notice these little signs he will pass your way. And by all means thank you for letting us adopt Owen. By no means where you ever crossing any lines. Thank you for bringing him to us.

Darren - Perry's words here are the perfect summation to what has been a family tragedy. Prayers for strength and healing to you and yours continue to come.

We are very sorry for your loss.
No parent should have to endure the fight and loss.
Our thoughts are with you, your family and Owen.
We can all help keep up the search for a cure.

My sincere sympathy. Keep the memories of him in your hearts, remember all the things he did and said, the way he smelled, the way he felt - and he'll never be truly gone.
Best,

That was very touching, you are a great Dad and you showed Owen what true love is.
An association of men who will not quarrel with one another is a thing which has never yet existed, from the greatest confederacy of nations down to a town meeting or a vestry.
