Minus One Son

A site dedicated to our son Marcus Manny. Hopefully through this blog we can persuade people from driving while distracted. Hoping we can convince people to turn their vehicles into Phone Free Zones. Hoping that we can show that Distracted Driving is a harmful phenomenon with devastating effects. We pray that by sharing our loss and experiences, we can prevent people from making the same mistake our son made and in turn save lives and families from immeasurable grief.

From Heaven Above

I wrote these words in what seems like not so long ago....

My hand shakes as my pen writes these words.

The tears stream down my cheeks to splash the page.

To grasp that you've gone makes my heart hurt.

I see your smile and your dancing eyes.

The laughter and humor in your voice rings in my ears.

I remember how you made me laugh till I cried.

Cracking jokes to lighten the mood or to ease my pain.

You lend an ear and give words of advice when I'm in need.

You were someone we all admired.

Always treasured and remembered in all the hearts that your character and personality touched.

We ALL will forever miss the fun loving YOU!!!

Marcus Manny
