Our friend Pam has lost her second oldest son, Chad, in a tragic accident.

She has posted this information on Facebook:

Quote:
It's official, my son died [Feb 8, 2010] from electrocution. He went up a ladder with a pole to try to untangle the American Flag, and hit a power line.

His dog Blue stayed by his side through the rain and hours that he lay on the ground before he was found.

This is the same son that wanted badly to get into the Marines when he was younger and he was rejected.

This is the same son that had his body tatooed with the 911 happenings; the twin towers, the Fire Dept. and more.

He was proud to be an American and I guess it showed in the end of his life.

RIP Chad V Gawriluk...my proud and patriotic son......

Pflugerville TX

Once again dear friends, I get through this because of you...thank you for the outpouring of your love.

We (his brother and I and his family) are setting out today to get to TX to take care of Chad's business he owned, and give him a Memorial due him.
Please keep Pam Cook and her family in your prayers and thoughts.

How sad, I can't think of any thing worse happening than losing one's child.

Sue and my prayers are with Pam and her family through this heart wrenching time..

Thank you so much John for sharing my information with my friends here on the Forums, and thank you dear friends for the kindness you are showing my family and I! I feel the hugs, and the comfort your words provide us.
We are out traveling to TX, and it is very slow going. We will use your encouragements and prayers to finally arrive, and further, take care of giving Chad a deserving send off!

We feel the hugs, and love .... THANKS AGAIN!

Once again thank you.
Tomorrow Valentines Day his neighbors are giving him a memorial service here in Pflugerville, TX. The weather is nicer than it has been all week, and I am hopeful the day will be sunshine and warmth. Either way, what a lovely thought and wonderful country neighborhood he lived in.

RIP Chad

Small towns are so great.

Blessings to you, your family and Chad's friends and neighbors as together you recall memories of Chad that bring sunshine and warmth into your midst regardless of what the weather is like outside.

We all salute Chad and thank him for his love of country.

Pam please accept my deepest sympathies in the tragic loss of your son. He sounds like he was a wonderful son! How loyal and loving of his dog to remain steadfast at his side. It breaks my heart...I can't begin to imagine what it has done to yours.
