Where are the Words?


How do you comprehend something like this? Teo, the big, sweet-faced young man whose wedding to Naomi I chronicled a short two months ago, was killed in a logging accident last Friday.


There are no words to express my feelings -- only to wish courage and strength to Naomi and her family, and to Teo's family and friends. May his memory be a blessing.

My condolences to his family and all of you who treasure him. I want to say more, but I don't know what to say.

I am so very sorry. Thoughts and prayers of comfort to you and his family and all who loved him.

Feelings of shock which reminds me of how short our time together here is. And my shock is third hand. How his friends and family must feel, I can't imagine. May they find peace somehow deep within as they lean on one another.

Vicki, I knew him only through your blog, but I'm shocked and saddened. So young, with so much to live for. My heart goes out to his family and friends.

So young, so strong, so wrong.

No words, no words. Being together, love, souvenirs, strength.
So sorry.

Loved the pictures of that wedding and kept going back to them. Kept thinking what a wonderful place for such a lovely time in their lives. Saddened by reading of this loss. Prayers for his family and strength for endurance at such a time.

A terrible loss of life for one so young. So much awaited him and his new wife, possible children and a long happy marriage. We never know when our time will come - soon or late - but it is always sad for those left behind. My deepest sympathies to all.
