That is a really nice way to remember him. I'd never read that poem before. Gave me LES. I'm glad you have a stone now. I'm sure that makes you feel a little less stressed. I can't imagine how hard it must still be for you.

diana i got LES when i read your post and saw your photos. i am so sorry for the grief you and carl have known, and i'm glad for the joy your children have given you , kind regards, joyce
I keep coming back to this thread ever since you posted it. I'm trying to think of what to say, and I just can't seem to come up with it.
I cannot even begin to fathom losing a child. The strength of parents who live through that amaze me. I honestly think someone would be burying me as well, if anything happened to my son.
That's a beautiful headstone.
It's Time to Remember ... A Dear Son, Brother, and Friend of many ...

Who left us three years ago to become one of God's Angels.
I Hope Rob, aka R2D2, still makes recon flights from his beautiful stone Star Wars outpost
to check on Mom & Dad, Amy and Christy. I'll bet that you'll feel his presence this week.
* May his Force be with you - now and Forever *

This would be a great time to send a {{{Hug}}} and a Prayer out to Diana, Carl, Amy, and Christy;
and maybe an extra one for Rob.
* Done *
I also lost a son in a accident 2 years ago in a tragic car. He was 42 years old. The pain of losing a child is so hard to bear but time , my faith and my friends has made it easier for me. I can talk about him now without crying. There is no greater love than a mother has for a child. May you find peace in knowing that he is in God's hand. I will add you in my prayers.
My attention was called that the pictures no longer show up due to the fact that they were taken from imagestation. I tried to edit the old post but evidently it is too old to do so. So here the pictures from the original posts.

And here are pictures of the tree that Pet Talk donated to the cemetery where Rob is. It is doing well and we again thank all of you who donated - it is just so great knowing that you all cared enough to give something that will be there for a very long time.

{{{Hugs}}}, Mom!!
Thanks for *fixin* the photos of Rob's Tree! :)
Can you find some replacement photos of The Stone? >>> ***DONE***! :D
"R2D2" / Rob's Earthly Outpost is so Beautiful, it's NICE to see it back here.
More {{{Hugs}}} ;)
How beautiful and moving. My tears are flowing freely here
That gravestone is absolutely gorgeous, and the "He only took my hand" poem brought tears to my eyes. It is very touching indeed. I haven`t been on PT in a few years, so this is the first I have heard about your son`s passing. I can`t begin to imagine how hard it must have been, and must still be in many ways, for you. It seems like he would absolutely love that gravestone. :) It truly reflects how much Rob is loved and that he was, and still is of course, sorely missed. Hugs to you, your family, and all those who knew your son, for staying as strong as you could through the last three years, and the many more to come. Rest in peace, Rob.
{{{hugs}}} What a wonderful tribute, and incredible poem.
With the personal touches, it is really "Rob's stone", and perfect for him. When strangers pass by, they will know how special he was, and is.
{{{hugs}}}
I love the pictures and glad to hear the tree is doing well.
Big {{{hugs}}} to Carl, Diana, Amy and Christy.
RIP Rob.
RIP Rob you are not forgotten. Hugs and prayers to everyone in the family.
The grave stone is lovely. More hugs are being sent your way.
