Until yesterday, I haven't posted here since April, when my wife and I, and my daughter lost our 18 year old son, Tyler. That post read as follows:
I'm not the most frequent poster here, but i do check in basically daily to see what's up, and it is because i feel like we are a family here that i am writing this...maybe it's purely just therapeutic for me, I don't know.....
My Wife and I, and our daughter lost our beautiful 18 year old son Tyler in a horrific car accident on Sunday. It is only the love and support of our family and friends that is allowing us to cope at all right now. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you all that I consider you family too and to ask you to do this TODAY...
For those of you that have children....give them a giant hug tonight and tell them that you love them..
For those of you that don't...hug your spouse, your girl/boyfreind and tell them that you love them..
Call your parents and tell them you love them...
Whoever you have and whatever it takes....do it....life is too precious and too fragile not to....

Although I've been around, I haven't posted until yesterday, making a comment on the the thread about Ryan Williams and the Cowboys, and i'm literally in tears to see that the first response (from 8300A_hokie12 who i dont know from adam...) is "welcome back, hokietopher", and now Egbert, AS I WRITE THIS!!!, welcoming me back into the fold....
This truly is a special community- one we should all be thankful to be a part of. There are really some amazing people here....
I'd like to ask for a bit of help.....My wife and I , and our daughter, have tickets, and are coming from NJ for the Miami game. It's going to be difficult for us with everything that's happened if we can't have some friendly people around us to tailgate/spend some of the day with....we don't know anybody there, and if we're by ourselves all day, i don't know if we'll be able to be OK....we don't have a parking pass, and in the past, have parked & tailgated in the Warren St. apartments next to the stadium woods. If any of you have 'set' tailgates that we can stop by and maybe feel 'part of the family' for a while....well we'd be honored if you would have us...
