YouTube: Tribute to Our Son
I decided to present you today with a video tribute to our son, Ashley, who passed unexpectedly from this plane on January 30. Beth, Audrey (our daughter), and I are doing much better, but we’re still grappling with the emotional instability of grief.
When I stood before you last Sunday, I felt such an outpouring of love and compassion that I knew I couldn’t continue speaking. And I knew you’d understand. I know that most of you have lost loved ones, and you know the storm of emotion that this stirs. We want you to know how much we love and appreciate all of you.
And we extend this love and appreciation to our internet audience. Though we can’t be together in person, love really knows no distance, no barriers of time or space. Your comments are precious gems to Beth and me. . . .
You and Beth are so loved. I send your family my prayers and condolences. We all know the grief of loosing our loved ones. We are with you.
Thank you Linda. We do feel the loving support of you and all of our friends through this challenging time. With deep appreciation, Doug
