Prayer Request: Good friend died yesterday

Me | 4/3/12 | Me

[jmc813]

36 years old, massive heart attack. He was in reasonably good shape and non drug user, but had a family history of heart issues. Please send prayers/thoughts/vibes/whatever. And if your family has a history of heart problems, please stay on top of things.

[sheikdetailfeather]

Prayers sent up! So sorry to hear that. Especially at such a young age.

[jmc813]

I believe one of you run the prayer ping list. Please send this along. Thanks!

[GenXteacher]

May Almighty God comfort you, his family, and other friends, and send you his peace.

[texas_mrs]

Prayers for your friend and his family. Cherish the memories until you see him again, someday.

[svcw]

I am very sorry for your loss.
Prayers for strength are offered up.

[Mortrey]

So sorry for your loss.
Remember—you will see your friend soon again. Your friend is in the best place!

[stylecouncilor]

Sorry for your loss. Prayers sent.

[Amberdawn]

My condolences to you and his family. A very sad event. God Bless all involved.

[tet68]

Sorry to hear it, prayers up for his friends and family.
Last year I lost a good friend, he had a stroke sitting
across from me at lunch. We got him to a hospital but
he had several more that night and was gone.

Miss you Chief, it was an honor to be your friend.
T.

[rep-always]

I am so sorry. My prayers are with you.

[mardi59]

God bless this young man. Prayers up.

I’m sure the Lord had great need for his company. When He calls we must go. He has seen the Lord, and spoken to him, and I’m sure he is feeling great joy at this moment.

Don’t be sad for too long. He wouldn’t want that. You will see him again some day. God bless you too.

[Duchess47]

Praying.

jmc813, prayers for your friend’s family, for his friends...

How tragic, at such a young age. :(

[Jvette]

Life is so precious, so precarious that we fail to appreciate each day we have as the gift it is.

I have a friend, eighty-one who is dying in hospice right now. I don’t know why God has let her linger, but He has.
I don’t know why God has taken your friend so young, but He has.

We must just trust in Him, that all is in His hands.

May the Lord comfort you and all his family and friends at this time and may the soul of your dear friend find peace with the Lord.

[blueplum]

I will pray for you first, jmc813, that you are spiritually strengthened as you grieve for your friend. And I will pray for your friend called Home, that he finds everlasting peace in the kingdom of God. I lost my brother to a sudden heart-attack also. Sudden losses are harder I think.

I can share this with you - you may not know now why that friend came into your life, but one day, someone will say or do something that will cause you to have to decide an important matter, and I promise you, when that time comes, maybe years from now, as sure as the sun shines above, you will think of what your good friend would say or do in that matter, and it will guide you to make the right decision.

Don’t forget, it’s ok to cry. Even if you have to drive a bit out to an old country road with only cows for company. You’re gonna feel anger and sadness all at the same time. Let it out best you can in nondestructive ways. Be good to yourself. Take it a day at a time. God bless you.

Every prayer counts more than we know. I wish I knew the family’s name but I’m sure the Lord will know who I’m talking about...and I’ll pray for you too for your great loss of obviously such a dear friend.

God Bless.

And I thought mine was early @ 39.

Sometimes I find myself thinking that my suspect heart is actually my ticket out of this crumbling world.

Your friend is in a better place with the Lord.

[Viking2002]

Prayers up for your friend and condolences for the family. My dad had a massive M.I. at 34, a double bypass at 43, and spent the last ten years of his life in the hospital more than he was out of it, before the umpteenth surgery took him at 65. Now I'm the same age as his youngest brother, who went way too early from cardiovascular disease, himself. Hideous disease. It's heartbreaking to see a vital person slowly waste away. All you can do is console yourself with the knowledge that God called them home at that moment for a reason. In Dad's case, we know it was because God told him, "You have acquitted yourself well, my son. It's time to join me. Let's see if that dumbass you sired also gets a clue in the next few decades."

I'm still a work in progress.

"As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their hearts desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

[Pinkbell]

I’m sorry. Prayers for you and his family. May he rest with God.

God bless you, friend. I went through the same thing just over 9 years ago. I posted a thread about it then. I still miss my buddy.

God needed him for something. I pray for him and that his loved ones on earth receive God’s peace.

[goat granny]

So sorry to hear of your friends passing on....My husband died at the age of 51 with his one and only heart attack...One son had his first H.A in his mid 40's and another son had to have a shunt put in and they found out he only had 2 cardiac arteries...I breathed a big relief sigh when they passed their fathers age. I nagged them for years to take care of themselves...That was something their father never did...ignore it and it will go away. He died in the back yard while we were putting up hay in the barn.

MEN, DO NOT IGNORE YOUR HEALTH, IT CAN BE DEADLY...THAT GOES FOR LADIES ALSO.... gg
