In Rememberance

[MadOne]

This evening, a friend, Brother in Arms, and some one who is close to us all has had a terrible tragedy in his life, Mr. and Mrs. Andy Bell (LA_MERC_ANDYCONDA)lost there dear son just hours after his birth. I am not clear on all the details of his death, nor do I think it right for me to go into them here. I want to ask that we all keep Andy and his family in our thoughts, hearts and prayers as they work through this. Tonight at Bayou Frag Fest LA_MERC took up a collection for Andy and his family, there was a significant amount donated and I would like to thank all the people that gave all that they had.

If you would like to help contribute to Andy and his family to help with some of the expenses please do so. We have arranged it so that you can do so over pay pal. If you want to mail something that is fine.

Please make it out to:
LA_MERC
C/O Andy Bell
124 Wilson Dr.
West Monroe, La 71291

Please mark on the check that it is for Andy and his family.


Again, I would like to ask that everyone keep them in your thoughts and prayers.

Andy and Candace, we will be here for you no matter what, if there is anything that you need please feel free to contact me or Dayla at any time day or night.

God Bless You

Mark, Dayla and kids.

Andy, I am so sorry about what happened to your son. It really hit me hard when I heard about what happened. I know what you and your wife are going through right now cause I was there last year. It was the hardest thing that I have ever had to deal with. You guys will be in our prayers and I will do everything that I can you help you. Aubrey and I are here for both of you. We are just a phone call away and please call us if we can do anything at all for you. I will be here for you my Brother as you guys were for me!

Andy,

Don't really know you that well, but I feel you man. I had a cousin that died six hours after he was born. It's hard, but he's being taken care of in a much better place now. My heart (and everyone else's that sees this I'm sure) goes out to you and your family. God Bless.

Andy,

What can I say? I am very sorry at your loss. I realize that there are no words at this point that I can say that will console you make you feel better. When the time comes, you know that we will all be here to help you out. Please do not hesitate to ask any of us for assistance. That's what being in a clan is about...being there for your fellow brothers in arms.

Alicia and I will remember you, your wife, and your son in your prayers. God bless you.

Andy, words can't expres my feelings for y'all. You know if you need ANYTHING, just let me know. You know y'all are like family to me. This kind of thing shouldn't happen to anyone, let alone people like you. Thanks for everything you did for us and the LAN this weekend and know that y'all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Andy,

Being up there to see you again after not being able to see ya in about 3 yrs was one of the best moments I have had in a long time, it was very evident that you are a great friend, father, and husband from what I witnessed this weekend. When we heard the tragic news on the way home, it will be a moment I know I will never forget, and my thoughts and prayers are with you. We will be there for you in the good times and the bad times.

Brothers 4 Ever,

Mike

Andy and Candace:

As with the other folks posting here, I'm not sure that I can put my thoughts into words. You two are the kindest and loving parents I have ever met. To have something happen like this just doesn't seem fair. Should you need anything at all don't hesitate to call.

Becky and I will keep you in our thoughts.

Like those before me I can not put into words any thing that would remove your greif. I do not understand why God would take the life of a inocent child and leave some of the scumbags here. I do know that God is soverign in his plan for all of us and that it works to his purpose and glory. Just know that your family will be in our prayers.

Although, I dont believe I have ever met Candice, our deepest and greatest sympathies are with you as you endure the pain and suffering. We dont have a phone, but if we did you could call us at any hour! We love you two like family. Just know that we are all here bound together as a family for you.
