    Guys. Idk your religion. Or if you have one. But I need you guys to keep me and my family in your thoughts. Yesterday my stepson drown in the local reservoir. It was his father's visitation wknd and he took him fishing and they both somehow exited the boat and neither were wearing a life jacket. Both perished. They have been found, however. The local authorities did a great job. Just probably won't be in the truck fab mood for a long while....thanks in advance.

    If any of you partake in watersports..don't try to be a hard ass and not wear a pfd. Keep them on your kids at a minimum...Lil man was only 3.

    --Michael.

    Have a son that's 3 myself, I can't imagine loosing him or one of my daughters.

    We will keep you and your family in our prayers brother. Hope your heart is filled with wonderful memories and the joy that he brought you when he was with you always.

    What was his name? Post up some pics and share a good story about him. Lord knows my 3 year old has given me plenty of funny stories already. He's a hot mess. Ladie killer and he flirts with all of them too.

    If you need anything at all, even just someone to talk to, shoot me a PM, text, or e-mail. I'll send my contact info in PM.

    I can't even imagine the pain and heart ache your going through. It's gotta be tough losing a loved one, especially a child. Keep your head up and your spirits high. Sorry for your loss.

    Beautiful family brother. Your son and mine could pass for brothers, or at least cousins. LoL.

    Here are my 3. Joseph (aka:Goose) on the left is 3, Makoto (Mia or Kota for short) in the middle is 9, Jasmine on the right is 10.

    The girls are really getting into Bushcraft and survival techniques this year. They're also into helping me work on any vehicle project I have going. Joe is huge into motorcycles. The day he was born he was twisting his throttle wrist, so I joked that he'd be a chopper jockey like his papa. Little did I know at the time that would be the truth. He's absolutely motorcycle crazy. Loves anything with two wheels.

    We're still praying for some comfort for you guys.

    Wow. I couldn't imagine losing either of my boys. It scares me just thinking about it.

    I'll be praying for you and your wife.
