Jimmy and I have been fortunate to have met some wonderful people in the Spyder community so I wanted to share this with all of those we've met and have rode with. Jimmy and I have had a terrible tragedy in our family. Our precious 2 year old grandson accidently drowned in their new pool Thursday evening. Jimmy and his son are the ones who found him. This has been so hard for us and we really need everyone's prayers to get us through this. Our baby Rocklin had so much spirit and life and his favorite loves were motorcycles and dirtbike racing. That is all the toys he ever wanted and he loved our bikes. Please especially say a prayer for Jimmy that he can get through this.

Condolences from my family to yours. I have a friend who had an identical incident happen to her and her husband. Her son was 9 and was out of her sight for just minutes at a birthday pool party. She showed me just how strong she really was while she was and still is getting through it. I would look for a local organization of parents who have lost children. Hugs,support and prayers will help.

I have a 2 year old grandson and I cannot fathom losing him to an accident. I don't think I could ever recover so I can see, to a limited extent, how Jimmy will have to deal with this and that it won't be easy. If prayers will help then so be it, you have mine.

Phil
07-16-2011, 09:22 PM
I agree with another poster.... thanks for asking us to pray for you. That right there means a lot to your healing process. And as you can see, MANY of us WILL pray.

My prayer is that God will wrap is arms of comfort as you ask 'why'. And there is no answer for that, that we can see. We're told that children are God's favorite- "Suffer the little children to come unto me." I'm confident that that Rocklin is resting in Jesus' comfortable arms. My wife is a family therapist and had the loving task to help several through this type of tragedy. She would tell you to allow the grieving to take all of its normal courses without trying to short cut any of it. It will not be easy. Do use your faith to buoy you in the low times.

I'll be praying for you, for Jimmy, for Rocklin's family.

Our hearts go out to you (Cindy), Jimmy and your whole family! I trust that God is with you during your time of need. And as others have said, even if it is difficult to believe during this time of your loss, trust in God....He will bring you through. We may not ever know, till we get to Heaven, why it happened, but God has His reasons. Just want you to know that C and I are praying for you all, and we are saddened to hear of your loss. We, too, have grandchildren and it would be so hard to bear it. But, God wants to bear our burdens. Do you remember the "Footprints in the Sand: poem?

Here it is:


Footprints in the Sand



One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.


In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only.


This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,


“You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?”


The Lord replied, “The years when you have seen only one set of footprints, my child, is when I carried you.”


Mary Stevenson, 1936

It has probably been the longest 2 days of my life but we are getting through it and it has helped my healing process reading all of your posts. That is why I wanted to share my grief with you because you are such a wonderful group of people. I hope this goes through but here is a picture of my beloved Rocklin. Jesus has his hand and in the other he has a toy dirtbike, as he smiles down on all of us. God bless you guys and hug all of your little ones, I don't care how old they are...https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/156788_1739501335813_1487062827_2938624_6874356_n. jpg

My very deepest sympathy for the tragic loss of little Rocklin. There are just no words to express the incredible sadness that I felt for you and your family as I read your post. We lost our nephew at about the same age to a car accident and the pain of loosing a child can not be explained. I am truly sorry for your loss. All of you will remain in my thoughts and prayers. What a beautiful child. :pray::pray::pray::pray::

Cynthia, prayers are with you and Jimmy and your whole family. There is a saying that time heals all wounds. I found that is not true. This is a wound that will always be there. But time with the help of our Lord will make it easier to live with that wound and that continual hole in your heart. The Lord is our comforter and when you seek him in this time of need, you will find that he has his arms around you and though it will never be easy, you will find a peace that many will not understand. I say this from experience. We are just not supposed to have to bury our children and grandchildren. It is not the intended order but when we do, we need that extra support that can come from no other.

There is no way I can fathom the grief, pain and loss you and the family are experiencing. I read your post Saturday afternoon. My thoughts immediately raced to my grandkids (3 and 6) who were in my pool with their dad. I watched them from the window and I teared up. Life has never been "fair" and losing family or good friends is terrible. But living through the death of a child or grandchild seems especially devastating. There really are no words that will ease the pain or replace the void. But Jesus is with you. Lean on him and the friends He sends to help you. My father died when I was a young teen. A voice told me I would never forget him, but in time I would accept that he was gone. I think of him often, but rest in the fact that he is in a better place. I pray the same for all of you.

I just wanted to thank you guys again for all the support and kind words. Jimmy reads these daily and it helps him with the healing. I wanted to share this because it brought a smile to my face. We took Jimmy's dad to the grave site last night. On the spray that went on that little casket were all kinds of toy dirt bikes. When we got there late last night every one of those dirt bikes were playing making those revving noises. When we stood there stunned all of them but one quit playing. The James Stewart one played the whole time we were there and that was his favorite. None of his other 3 siblings were allowed to mess with his James Stewart bike. Now I said we had interupted that little boy playing but Travis, Jimmy's son, said that when those toys get wet they come on like that , it had rained the night before...but we all got a kick out of that. In that big ole quiet cemetary you could here dirt bikes being played. The James Stewart was still revving as we left. I know he is in heaven with Jesus's hand in one little hand and a James Stewart toy dirt bike in the other. May God bless everyone of you.

That he is...... that he is. When you get a chance buy 'Heaven Is For Real'. The story of Colton Burpo. At 3 1/2 he nearly died on the operating table. I won't spoil it, but your comment is spot on, according to little Colton. It's a simple read written by his father Todd.
