I immediately called Phil because no one could reach him. It truly was one of the most difficult things I have ever done. Phil is having difficulty accepting things right now. We came to Indiana so Phil can mourn with his family and celebrate Jason's life.
In honoring Jason's life we have done things, we believe, Jason would have wanted. Saturday Night we gathered at Jason and Franka's house and watched the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame take on the Oklahoma Sooners in Oklahoma. Being a Fighting Irish fan was in their blood. Jason's brothers and son's came together, but it was very clear there was something missing. Without a doubt, there was a void that no one will ever be able to fill.
Whether it be the empty chair no one wanted to sit in, or the missing tone in the choir of laughter when all the brothers are together the emptiness was deafening. In a few hours droves of people will come to pay their respects to Jason and his family. My heart aches for not only my husband as he he tries to process this senseless accident but for all of those left behind in this tragedy.
I managed to find a few pictures from when Jason was very young and all the wedding photos I took back in 2009 when Jason married Franka. The school pictures were very sweet as they were of days long past. As I looked through the wedding photos, it was the happiest I had ever seen Jason and the smiles were genuine. It was very clear he had finally found true happiness with Franka.
My only hope is that eventually those hurting from this horrible turn of events find some type of peace in Jason's passing. It is not going to be an easy road, but again I can hope wounds are healed and harmony can be found.
TTFN~
