Asking for help... please read... tragic death
https://www.gofundme.com/motwhg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
My Hubby's little brother died in a car accident this week... This is a letter from his wife. Please read and share and help if you can.... They lost their first daughter to cancer at age two, have two girls ages 5 and 3... And a surprise pregnancy, she's still in her first trimester. It's just so sad....
I wanted to thank everyone for your thoughts, prayers, love, and kind words about Chris. I love him and in 9 years this is the longest I have been without him. I don't think we went more than 12 hours without talking in the last 9 years. I miss him very much, I never pictured life without him. He was a wonderful father, the best I could have ever given my children, a great husband and worthy opponent when we argued, and always goofy and fun. He had a way of connecting with people. I love all the beautiful comments you have shared about him. He loved completely, family was always first especially his children. We know he is with our sweet angel Baylee now watching over us. We will continue to love and remember him every day. We were very lucky to have such close families and I appreciate having married in to my wonderful husband's family. There is also a donation campaign. We will be using any funds raised to help with expenses related to the funeral and relocating to be closer to family and any future expenses for our girls and future baby.
Thank you again for being apart of Christopher's life and sharing your memories of him.
Christopher, I love you so much. I am crushed right now and I don't know how I am going to continue without you. But I promise I will do everything I can to raise our girls and keep them safe, protected, and loved, and I will do my best to nurture the baby we are expecting. You chose me to mother your children and I will not let you down. Thank you for putting up with me, for always being there when I needed you, and for choosing me. I know I am not the easiest person but you stuck by me. We agree so completely on the important parts of life, and when we disagreed we were both too stubborn to back down. I am going to miss arguing with you over nothing just because we are too stubborn to listen and usually both winding up being wrong. I am going to miss your wild stories, imagination, and dreams. I will miss kissing you good night, waking up to you in the morning, and just simply laying on your chest. I will miss you telling me stories that I don't care about while I am busy doing fifty other things. I will miss you asking me who would win in a fight even though we both know I am always going to choose Batman or Rand. I will miss you doing laundry cause you know I hate it. I will miss you getting me and the girls into new songs, teaching the kids about music, and your amazingly talented music, singing and playing the guitar for us. I will miss you at every milestone in the kids lives. I will miss your cheesy jokes and puns. I will miss your annoying habits and your general airheadedness about things like shopping. I will miss you holding me. I will really miss you when Baylee's birthdays come around because you're the only one who knew exactly what I was feeling, it was a very personal private connection only we understood. I will miss you doing anything anytime. I miss you now and I am really mad because I only want you to hold me and make it go away. You left us with a lot of broken promises, and every day I will remember you should be here to keep your end up. You promised you'd leave things with me so I'd know you'd be back, and you took your stuff with you when you left Monday morning and you're not coming back. I am not ready for this but most things we did we were never really ready for. I love you and I promise I will do what you trusted me to do, raise our children and I will make sure they know their daddy and sister in Heaven. Hold my baby girl tight until I get there and I will hold our babies here.

Re: Asking for help... please read... tragic death
Please share or contribute what you can.... We've haven't even raised enough to cover the funeral expenses. She is needing to move all of her stuff back down to the valley, to move in with her parents, and so many other expenses that come with single parenting. She is currently trying to get good stamps and insurance for the pregnancy and their children, please don't just read and ignore.... Even five bucks makes a huge difference. You can also donate through paypal using [email protected] or Chase bank has an account set up using Christopher Tryon Family Funds thank you!!

Re: Asking for help... please read... tragic death
I would have her read study and pray about this befor signing up for government assistance.
https://www.lds.org/ensign/1986/09/guid ... e?lang=eng" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
We have been advised to look to our family and freind and to the church never to the government.
D&c 121 34-40 will help in this understanding. Unrighteous dominion one aspect of it is using your vote or actions to enslave others through taxation and bondage. It's where the majority of lds are tricked into using unrighteous dominion on their fellow men. And could take away the person ability to make it into the celestial kingdom.
I post this the help not hurt. It's a commandment D&c 88 76-82

Re: Asking for help... please read... tragic death
Ezra, I agree with you about not going to the government for financial assistance. However, the Ensign article you linked is from 1986. The Church has done a turnaround on this policy. Although they still advise getting help from family, I know people who have been refused help by their wards and stakes (several different stakes that I know of personally) because they would not sign up for food stamps, or disability income. They were told, if you don't do all you can to help yourself, by applying for government money that you qualify for, we (the church) cannot help you beyond a couple of food orders while you wait for your food stamps to start.
I don't agree, but that's the counsel I, as a RS President, was counseled to give to members.

This is very true Lizzy60, they will only help temporarily until the government benefits kick in, alot of members dont have family who can help so then they prefer you turn to Social Benefits.

Re: Asking for help... please read... tragic death
The churches policy has not changed. Look it up. It's the peoples in the church that's has changed. The handbook still says the same thing.
And I would also remind you that God is the yesterday today and tomorrow. The condemnation of those who use unrightous dominin are still there no matter what the local leaderships understandings are.
Those who will put their trust in God will receive. Those who would use socializem dominion and satans plan will be punished. We have been warned. Is I worth our salvation to not trust in God? Miracles are given to those who faith to receive them.
Just as with the law of tithing. If you do it the blessings will come. Give God the opportunity to show you his hands.

Wow, I can only imagine what that poor family is going through. I'll donate what I can.
