Today, March 1, is the day that Jordan Taylor Pauley, my baby boy, was supposed to arrive. This was to be his birthday, a day when everyone would get to meet him and he'd meet the world.
Unfortunately, that is not the case today. Today we mourn his loss on October 30, 2004.
But we also celebrate what his life has meant to us, to Tara and me and our family and friends.
Tara and I will be visiting Jordan today at Tyler Mountain Memorial Gardens. And while I do mourn him, I am so proud to be his father.
So to you, my friends here at tron-sector.com, even though you don't know me that well, I want to ask one thing of you: Whenever you can, wherever you are, raise a toast to him today. I don't care if it's a glass of wine, a glass of beer or whatever, just raise a toast to our angel.
If you pray, say one for my lovely, incredibly stronger than any one of us will ever imagine wife, Tara. Today is ESPECIALLY hard on her, and any prayers for her healing would be greatly appreciated.
Finally, I want to let you all know how grateful I am to have your friendship. You've all been there for us during these past 4 months - easily the worst four months of my entire life - and I want you all to know that it doesn't go unappreciated or overlooked. You may not have realized it, but all of the fun talking about video games, movies, art, music - it all helps me cope with this loss and to see how many wonderful people there are in the world - which all of you truly are.
I know in my heart we'll all have that chance to be together, in a much better place. I just hate that I have to wait for it, as I just can't wait to hold my baby boy.
Thank you all. Words fail me to tell you how much I appreciate your friendship here on these message boards. And from me, that's right nigh to impossible.
To those of you with children, give them an extra hug and kiss tonight. They may drive you crazy, but at least they're here to do so.
And I know that Jordan is just fine, as he's with my grandmother - and because I know that, I can assure you he's the most spoiled child in Heaven.

Hi PimpDragon
Maybe I am not anybody important in this place
or maybe I am not anybody that you know
and maybe you and I never have chatted...
But I am sure that in TronSector more than a person will say this to you:
WE ARE WITH YOU MY FRIEND
WE ARE WITH YOU abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

Believe me when I say that means more to me than any of you will EVER know.
Thanks for taking time to say something, Astrozombbie. I know sometimes it's hard to say anything - my best friends in the whole world have had trouble at times.
I apologize if I've brought anybody's day down. I just wanted to share what was going through my mind with some people who have helped me deal with this issue without even knowing it.
The most important thing I've learned is that life is SO precious. Take the time to tell people that you love them, or appreciate them. Make all the friends you can.
If I ever seemed weirdly friendly or overly friendly here, it's because I actually am that weirdly friendly. It's amazing that my son was here for such a brief time and he taught me more about life than 29 years' worth of experience.
I hope that this day brings all of you happiness - as I am so happy and proud to celebrate my son. Just be thankful - never forget how wonderful your life really is. That's all I'm saying.
Again, thanks to you all.

Pimp Dragon,
That's a nice way of dealing with such a loss. I am sure he's up there with your Grandmother and dressed in an outfit similar to your Who's Your User entry saying "That's my dad!"
I am glad you are dealing with it in such a positive fashion, and my thoughts are with you.

Sketch, thank you SOOO much for that. It really made my day.
Thanks to you all for sharing in my remembrance of my son. I wish I could tell you all how much this means to me, but words fail me again.
Just so you'll know, I was very much looking forward to making Jordan a Tron fan - whether he wanted to be one or not!
But, no matter what, he'd have many friends here on this board as I do. I'm sincerely grateful to you all, and if ever I can be of any service to you DO NOT HESITATE to let me know.
And although I don't know all of you face to face, I know how many wonderful souls visit here. And that's all I need to know with regards to the quality of people on these boards.
As I've always said, if ANY OF YOU ever find yourself in West Virginia, you have a place to stay. If there is any true stereotype about my state, it's that we have some of the friendliest people you'll ever meet. I extend that courtesy to any and all of you who would ever need it. We can watch Tron in my home theater room and I'll be glad to show you my memory box for Jordan.
Sketch, if you could e-mail that picture to me, I'd be forever grateful. It will go in Jordan's memory box as soon as I can print it out on some nice paper.
My tears right now are tears of joy, knowing that so many people who have never met me, my wife, nor my son, can still care about us.
I'm proud to know all of you through these boards. I hope to know all of you in person in the long run.
I hope we can have some sort of Tron-Sector get-together some time. I'll hug you all then!
Until then,
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Sincerely,
Kevin M. Pauleyon line abortion pill misoprostol dose abortion medical abortion pill online

[seems like it's a little late, but it's the thought that counts]
yesterday [march 2nd], after explaining your troubles to my family, i proposed a toast to you and your family.one raised glass is ok, but i went that little bit further and raised four glassesfor you and your family. i have no idea how hard this is for you, but by posting this message, I hope to ease your suffering just that much more.

Your welcome Kevin.
Here is the larger scan of that image for you. It's 1526 X 1437 pixels large.

If you would like to have the actual drawing, just PM me your mailing address PimpDragon and I'll mail it to you. There is no text on the drawing like you see on the above posted image, just the black background and figure. I added the text in photoshop so it would be clean and straight. The drawing is on 11 x 14 drawing paper. https://www.flickr.com/photos/blue_bezel/ |

I'm so sorry for your loss. I didn't see this thread till this morning but I immediately knew what I wanted to do. Anyone know what the fly-by pattern is called when one plane is missing from the patern. Here is my toast...

I just found this thread - been busy lately.
I'm so sorry for you loss, PimpDragon.
I wish I had something uplifting to offer... but I'm not sure what to say. I can only imagine the pain you and your wife must be feeling.
I guess all I can tell you is that you're not alone, which I'm sure you're well aware of. I'm sure your family and friends have been very supportive.
And of course, you've got a whole sector of friends here that are always ready and willing to offer you support in difficult times. I'm amazed with the excellent tributes people have quickly come up with and presented.
I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you all so much!
The fly-by was just amazing. So clever and so from the heart.
You are all so great. It's so appreciated. My wife saw the tributes today and was EXTREMELY touched.
We're lucky to have this wonderful group of people. I realize that, and I hope you all do too.
If Jordan's time here taught me anything it's that all life is precious. Every person is an experience in your life.
Luckily, every experience I've had here has been 200% positive. You can't say that about too many places nowadays.
From the bottom of my heart, I thank you all. I can only hope that some day I can repay you all for your kindness.
Sketch, I'll PM you my address. If you wouldn't mind parting with that picture, I'd love to have it. Tara and I would be very proud to have it in Jordan's keepsake box. But, if you don't want to part with your art (and BELIEVE ME I understand), thanks for the large scan.
Above all, I've learned that Tron-Sector is filled with some of the kindest, inventive, caring people I've ever come across. It's a lesson I'm glad to have learned and one I cherish.
God bless you all - and for those who aren't the religious type, may peace be with you all.
