Kegr8er Tragedy

Post by polobert »

No smiles or jokes here guys.

Kegr8er (Steve) and his wife Lauren lost their unborn baby today. Lauren was due next week which only makes it worse. As a result, Kegr8er is dropping out of NDL and who can blame him.
There are a lot of unanswered questions right now but he wanted me to tell you guys. Steve and I go back a few years and those that know him know he is a kick a$$ guy who didn't deserve this. He is crushed right now. I'm not sure if he'll check the boards for a while but if you want me to pass a message I will. If you want to send a card I'll ask him if he wants me to release his address.

If you are a God fearing person I am sure Steve and Lauren will take all the prayers they can get.

Polo

UPDATE: Just talked to Kegr and he expresses his thanks for the support guys. As I get more details I will pass them on.

My prayers are with him and his family.

Having a 3 month old myself, I just couldn't imagine.

Lord give our NDL brother and his family the strength and courage to endure this unfortunate tragedy. Amen.

How awful, my heart goes out to you Keggy.

Wow that is sad to hear.

Understandably this will be a very hard time for him and his wife and they will need their time to heal. Will keep them in thoughts and prayers. Also liked playing him when we had a chance. I know he has been here I think for almost as long as me. As others have said, we will be here for him.

12 years ago, I lost a still born. She was breached and was born brain dead. Her name was Aaliyah Tiana. That was the hardest thing I ever had to deal with. It was my first. I got to hold her before she passed and I vowed to always remember her. My oldest daughter is named after her Tiana Aliya. Just let them know what I felt is that God needed an angel and no matter what always keep their child in their hearts. They are not alone and hopefully they can feel the love of their unborn and their next child will have the heart of two! I feel my oldest is extra loving to herself and others. She is very strong going through what we are going through. Prayers to the Kerger family, when life kicks you, it is good to know you can get help from family and friends!

Send my prayers along Polo. Nothing more to say here to fix it other than a lot of love, and time.

I'm sorry to hear about this bud. We haven't really spoken much but this is the NDL so you're like family to me regardless. If you need anything (pass this along) let him know.

My thoughts and prayers and with Keg in this tough time. There will always be a spot in the NDL for Keg if he decides to return, I just can't imagine dealing with something like this. Stay strong Keg.
