As my wife and I just read your posting both of us had tears in our eyes. I am truly sorry for your loss and cannot not imagine the pain you are now dealing with. I'll say a prayer for him and for you and your family.....

Oh my brother I am sooo sorry for your loss. I think you may have hit on an important fact though. Parents please know where your kids hide, and look there..when they get scared thats where they will go, take them to a fire station and have a firefighter dress up in bunker gear so they are familiar with this...even firefighters kids get scared, so its not unusual for that to happen, and I say this not as a chritisim but as a plea to other parents.

I am very sorry.....When something like this happens it makes you really question your faith. I read a popular poem/ story you may want to consider.

A man was walking down a long beach and talking with God. They walked and talked and went through the stages of his life. When the man was at the end of his life/beach he looked back and became cross with God and said look you said you would always be their for me and looking back I see two sets of foot prints everywhere except in the toughest times of my life there was only one pair, how can you abandone me? That is when God said you see only one set of foot prints in those tough times of your life because that is when I carried you.....

I really don't think there is anything we can say, just know that we are all here for you if/when you need to talk. Don't try to blame yourselves because this was just some horrible accident.
My condolences

chad, im speechless, i cant even imagine what youre going through. i have a little brother whom i treat as my own son, he is like what you explained your son as, he always calls me zukiman, and he wants to grow up to be a zuki man, and sometimes i think * i just want him to have a tank, so he will be the safest of all* im sure you guys know what i mean.
he works with me also.

zukibrother, i dont cry much, just ask my family members about that, but as i am typing this, i cant hold the tears back. im truly sorry. but keep faith, he is carrying you.

Hi, I don't post much, but i have been around on one of the bbs or mailing lists for a number of years now, and feel like you guys are like family.

I had a very tramatic event happen to me yesterday, and thought it might be appropriate to let you guys know.

My house caught fire, yesterday(Sunday) and my four year old son passed away. This has got to be the hardest thing we ever had to deal with. Me and my wife made it out, but we couldn't find our boy, the firefighters later found him underneath my computer desk where he goes to hide, i never thought to look there.

We lost everthing in the house except for a drawer full of pictures of canaan and some of his toys. I loved him so much.

He aways called me his zukidady, and he called himself zukiboy. whenever I would go out and work on my samurai(which was quite often), he would go with me.

I probably won't be on here for a very long while, and won't be going to zukimelt, like i had planned.

I love you guys.
bye for now.

Words can not express the way I feel. My little girl is staying with her grand parents for two weeks. I miss her so much after one week away, that I can not imagine your pain. If you need anything, just ask.

Words cannot express the sorrow I feel for you and your family. Your post hit me in two ways, first as a Father and second as a former firefighter. I cannot fathom what it would be like to lose one of my children. I pray that GOD will help your family cope. You will just have to take it one day at a time.
