First I thought it was going to be about an episode of Heroes.

Then I thought it was going to be a poignant tome about his beloved wife.

Then I saw the dog.

EDIT: Just did a JI search, today is the 17th. Very sorry, Stokes.

I think he is referring to his wife.

Sorry for your loss Stokes. Can't imagine what that must be like.

Condolences Stokes. The loss of a spouse has got to be brutal. I can't imagine.

Thoughts to you and the kids.

So sorry, Stokes! From all you've told us, it sounds like you've been a wonderful dad to your kids through all of this. My thoughts are with you and your family.

The living carry the memories of the dead. I'd say Stokes has well honored his loved one in this respect.

Hang in there Stokes.
