Neighborhood tragedy...Thank you to all?

To all of you that answered my question last week over the my neighborhood tragedy I would like to thank you. I asked that all responses be dignified and sincere. All of you that answered kept to my request and provided dignified, sincere answers. This was a tough time for my neighbors and a week that provided an emotional rollercoaster; however, with your kindness, suggestions, and assistance I was able to apply some of those recommendations to good use. Additionally, as tight and close as we are in my neighborhood we came together and provided a reception following the funeral. On Tuesday (6/19/07) I came home from work and spent 2 hours at a local FedEx Kinko's and took this person's photo and created a piece of art work, put it to oversize, and gave a copy to both the Father/Step Mother, Mother/Step Father. They used it at the wake as well as at the funeral itself. Many people complimented on the effort, and my humble response was that I wish "it didn't have to be done". Again, thanks to all who answered and thanks to those out there who read the item and later contacted me by Y!A email on an individual basis. Best to all of you! I have to choose a best answer now, sorry I cannot choose ALL of you. Your sincerity and assistance were greatly appreciated and allowed me to focus on the family's needs. Thanks again to all!
