The good wishes, hopeful stories, and most of all, the prayers that were generated by this terrific community of people helped me get through this, and I am sure were felt by Q. No one can answer why things like this happen to good people, but we can only survive with the hope that we will be reunited someday in Heaven. I have thanked you all before for this, but wanted to make sure that all that responded, or even saw the posts and prayed for Quentin, and for our family, would have another chance to feel my sincere expression of gratitude.

I don't even know you but I have been reading & praying for you and your family. Praying for friends to comfort you with their kind words, hugs, and whatever is needed just at the exact time you need a dose of it. I am glad you shared Quentin's story & life. Everyone grieves differently and it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. Quentin is your grandson & joy of your life. Anyone with a grandchild understands your love for him, I certainly do as we have 9 of them. My sister & her husband lost their 3rd son Dec. 23rd to liver cancer. They have one left who hadn't spoken to them for 10 years. 2 days after his death he came to their home and were reunited after a tearful reunion. It was too bad a death had to happen to have a reunion with the remaining son. Many are hurting and we need each other. If only to get our minds off of the hurt for awhile. I, for one, will never tire of hearing about Quentin. Nancy
