It has been 3 months since the death of my son. Worst thing i have ever had to endure in my life. I can't go into details because i have none. All i can say is no matter who or the age of your children or any one you care for gets in a vehicle remind them to "put your seatbelt on n be careful." love you. That is not too much to say to possibly save a life. We can't be every place with our family. Especially when they are grown and moved away. But it is possible that if you have said it so many times it gets on everyones nerves ; maybe, just maybe that one time the one you love didn't buckle up a few seconds later he / she will remember you and "CLICK". I will never see my son's wonderful face , get a big hug from him or send a birthday card. He will never be in his families and friends lives again as the beautiful loving person he was. We can not possibly ever forget him. He was very special to so many. I miss you Brett. Love you with all my heart.
