If you have read the tribute to my son, you know the lord called him on December. What we didnn't realize and neither did my son Devlin since he was only 29 was that he should have given someone temporary power of attorney. You see when he died in the avalance and since he had now spouse, and no will we couldn't close out any of his things such as bank account, car title etc. until they found him. So we were in limbo for 6 months able to do nothing. I wouldn't want anyone to go through that. It dosen't have to be permenant only for the lenght of time they are gone. even think that if they leave a noterized know giving someone to act in case something happens, then that would be sufficient. Please if you have adult single children remember this in my son's name.
This is very good advice! Thank you for sharing your wonderful story here. It tells about a love for your son and finally finding peace at the one place where you felt closest to him. brdmommy
Sharon, this is a wonderful thing to share with everyone. For every death
there is a lesson to be learned. This is one I would not have thought of.
So sorry you had to go through such an ordeal. God bless your heart.
He was truly a special person, and when ones name is given, I believe it
is given by God, and the meanings of those names, certainly do fit. You
have just made my belief stronger, by sharing that Devlin means, "Man
of the Mountain." Unbelievable..... Awesome....
