To all of you that answered my question last week over the my neighborhood tragedy I would like to thank you. I asked that all responses be dignified and sincere. All of you that answered kept to my request and provided dignified, sincere answers. This was a tough time for my neighbors and a week that provided an emotional rollercoaster; however, with your kindness, suggestions, and assistance I was able to apply some of those recommendations to good use. Additionally, as tight and close as we are in my neighborhood we came together and provided a reception following the funeral. On Tuesday (6/19/07) I came home from work and spent 2 hours at a local FedEx Kinko's and took this person's photo and created a piece of art work, put it to oversize, and gave a copy to both the Father/Step Mother, Mother/Step Father. They used it at the wake as well as at the funeral itself. Many people complimented on the effort, and my humble response was that I wish "it didn't have to be done".
