Prayers are needed for all the poor victims of drunk drivers. The tragedy is most of them are repeat offenders. The law lets them off because the judges and lawyers are drinkers too and don't want to be dealt with the way they should be.

Frank, I feel so badly about this. Just wanted to let you know there is the "Victims of Crime" org. and they may be able to come up with extra money in case the family needs extra funds for specialty care. Just a thought, not to wait on that. Maybe you could have someone come out and talk to them and make the report. There are good attorneys that handle just that type of thing and will be very courteous and travel to the family.

I don't have an update on Ross' grandson, I'm truly hoping it's a positive one when it does come...
I'm trying to figure out how to print off entire threads like Dana did for Bruce, so I can take it to them to read, which, I think, would help them see they aren't alone out there and lots of ppl. are praying for good results for his grandson and surviving family...Dana? Please? w/sugar
Thanx Deb, knowing Ross, he already knows that, but will mention just in case, but I do know, one of his ol' clients is his attorney and they don't come any better, at least not here they don't, topdrawer gun...(also mine)
Thanks everyone, I think we all know to some extent for a multitude of reasons, prayer works...if nothing else, it tells someone, someone else cares and isn't doing it to get in good graces, they truly care about other human beings...
A couple of private emails, who's senders requested for whatever reasons, (not mine to say); to remain nameless, alluded to knowing Ross in the old days from around Quincy and spoke of some of their experiences, some are very funny...Ross is a natural jokester, sometimes very drool, but always very funny and not immune to stretching out a good joke...these friends comfirmed for me the snake story, very funny, later when more appropiate, I'll tell it...right now I'm going to say another prayer and then another, as so many we know here, in such a short time are going thru terrible times, prayer is healthy, I'm doing double doses...may God bless the World, no exceptions.....Magoo

Frank, You probably may already know by someone; I copy and paste into a word or wordpad all of the posts if I want to print them; and print them from there. It does print the pics too.
