So  I've  Been  Told

I've been told, that in time, something good will come from the passing of my son JORDAN WILLIAM SEBASTIAN.  For the most part, I agree with that sentiment. 

I've been told, that the memorial service held for my son, JORDAN, was the largest, most beautiful and heartfelt memorial service they've ever attended.

I've been told, by some parents who attended the memorial service held for my son, JORDAN, that it made them go home, hug and kiss their own children and tell them how much they loved their children. In turn, they vowed to better parents. 

I've been told, that the memorial service held for my son JORDAN, made people reevaluate THEIR OWN LIVES, it made some people UNDERSTAND WHAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT IN LIFE.

I've been told that "because of your son JORDAN, I'm no longer taking anything for granted, I will learn to DOMINATE THE DAY each and every day."

I've LEARNED that SO MANY PEOPLE, FAMILY, FRIENDS, CO-WORKERS & ACQUAINTANCES ARE GENUINELY CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY AND I.  There are some people who I wouldn't have imagined would be so very encouraging and THOUGHTFUL. 

I've LEARNED that there are MANY SIGNS, REMINDERS If you will, that MY SON JORDAN is CONSTANTLY with me. 

I've LEARNED that no matter how much time has passed, how busy I TRY to be, nothing will occupy this EMPTINESS, NOTHING will fill the VOID which resides in my chest. 

I've LEARNED from my son JORDAN, never be too busy to receive the DAILY GOSPEL! ​

I've come to the conclusion that GOD had a plan for my son JORDAN. I'm not 100% sure exactly what it is, but I’ve LEARNED not to QUESTION GOD.

Craig, you may remember a girl named Liz who lived in your neighborhood in East Lyme way back when. I suddenly remembered you today and thought, “I hope Craig is doing well.” I looked up your name, and there you are with your fine son. I, too, lost a child far too soon, and she, too, impacted this world and made it more beautiful during her brief life. May God bless all grieving parents, and may we always be grateful for the gifts He has given us through our (His) children.

Elizabeth,

This is Liz, Jordan's mom. I will forward your email to him. He doesn't have access to this account. Thanks for writing.
