Alvin Daniel Strauss

So this Summer we had some absolutely devastating news. My friend Linda was in a car accident with her children. A horrible woman was under the influence of pills and what not and drove straight into Linda's car at 55 MPH. Linda was stopped at a red light. Everyone had cuts and bruises, her daughter Lorna had a lacerated liver and extensive injuries but worst of all, little 5 year old Alvin passed away. He was unconscious at the scene and while kept alive for a day or so at the hospital, he never had any brain activity and they turned off life support after saying goodbye. This is a post I wasn't eager to catch up on, but it was a large part of our lives and continues to be in our hearts. We ache for darling Linda, Danny and their whole extended family. The funeral was gut wrenching, but also so so sweet. Alvin was more than special and he touched so many lives in his short 5 years.
