Hi Susie, You know I am not someone with many words to say or write. But, I wanted to let you know I think about you everyday. When I get stressed out I think about you and for some reason I don't worry as much about everyday problems, thanks! Hope to see you soon! Deb

Dear Susie,
I was reading your guestbook and was touched by the message that "YOU are beautiful." It so clearly articulates what I think all of us see. I know you are completely devastated, and yet you somehow muster words of inspiration for the rest of us. Your kind, giving and compassionate heart is a blessing and it is something that will help you get through this unbearable pain moment by moment. Love, prayers and healing thoughts.

Hi Susie!
I am checking in on you all the way from NYC! My heart breaks for you and your boys as I read your last entry. The story of Ethan was precious. I will have to say, whenever I am having a bad day or when I was really struggling when Tim and girls went back home last week...I think of you. I ask my self, "what would Susie say to me right now?" or how would you handle things? You are truly a pillar of strength and inspiration to many and I feel blessed to know you and your beautiful boys! Jackson still talks about the day we went to LARK Toys for Camp Jornada and Ethan had climbed all the way to the top of the rock and Mitchell had to go get him...he laughs every time he tells the story! (probably b/c it's something he would do! )

I think and pray for you everyday and the boys too!

Love,
MariClair

Susie..Just a little note I promise the little things you will not forget, even as you make a new life for yourself and the boys. It has been 30years and there are some things that are as if they were yesterday. I love my new life and thank God for it but a tear can still come 30 years later. I remember all of you every Sunday at church. I continue to look at this site just to see all of your smiling faces . Love and prayers Terry

I seem to always drop in and check on the "Breu" Crew right after you've posted. And as usual I intend to write you a message of caring, but I read your post and suddenly I feel better!!! You never cease to amaze me Susie B! I keep telling the Lord, "I want to be more like Susie!"
I pray for strength and comfort for you each day. I pray that the signs from Bryce and Tim continue and that you always feel blessed and continue to live your life in gratitude. I pray that your wonderful family and friends are always there for you, lifting you up when you need it most.

I was just thinking about you guys today too. Hard to believe its been 3 months already without Tim. Even harder to believe its been 20 months without Bryce.
You have showed all of us so much over the last few years. I don't know how to ever Thank You enough for showing us the important things in life. I sure do see things differently and try to not take things for granted.
Love you all to the moon and back...

Susie,

I'm sorry it's been so long since I've signed on to say hello. I think of you SO often and continue to pray for you and your boys. I always wish I had some wonderful words to say that would give you the strength you need to carry on, but I come up blank. I suppose it's because that strength will come from God, not my words. I just hope you know how often you remain in my thoughts and prayers. Take care and God bless!

Love and hugs,
Julie

I just wanted to let you know that you and the boys are never far from our minds and always in our prayers. I wish we lived closer so we could spend more days on the farm with you. Dylan just loved the boys and it was adorable how Ethan acted like the "big brother" to him. You and Tim surely raised wonderful boys. I pray for you always BreuCrew!

I do not know you personally, but since Bryce passed away, I have often thought of your family. As a fellow wrestling mom, I think of you everytime I am in Goodhue school for an event. I can't imagine the whirlwind changes God has brought you, but you are such a remarkably strong family and a great inspiration. After hearing of Jamie O'Reilly's passing as well, my heart breaks for the entire Goodhue community. The future is so uncertain, and you have taught me to live in the moment with my 3 boys and wonderful husband and for that, I thank you!

Susie,
Glad to hear you are in a grief group again. Mark and I find it very helpful. You know we know that they are okay and they are good at their new home in heaven but it is just the missing them that is so tough. We do give it all to God as he is so good, but we will always have those times that, know it as we do, we still can't fight the pain for the day and it is okay to feel it. We love them and miss every part of them. We understand it, we feel it and you are so not alone, we continue to pray for you all Susie. Take care of yourself and your boys and know that their are so many people lifting you in their prayers that you will be ok. God bless

Susie - thank you so much for sharing Bryce's tractors with Tanner a couple of weeks ago; I truly believe that Bryce was leading him to help his Mom show them off. Tanner is not one to quickly grab the hand of an adult that he does not know or to let them pick him up; however he took to you (and Bryce) without a blink of an eye, I could feel a proud little red headed boy with us. Thank you. Susie, you are an amazing woman, thank you for strengthening my faith, teaching me to love unconditionally, and to live each day to its fullest.
We continue to think of you guys daily and to pray for your comfort; we could not even begin to imagine the pain your heart feels.
God Bless - Putts, Stacy & Tanner

Susie -
You are beautiful!!!!! No, No - I mean it - you really are!!! And now - I want to say what you won't. You have endured what no one can imagine! No one should have to go through this! This is not fair and this should not have happened to you! Statistically - it doesn't even seem possible! And yet - You are Beautiful! (Not just because you have your MaryKay face on either :-) )

....You are just Beautiful the way that you are! After what you have been through - you have every right to be mad - you have every right to be sad - and you absolutely DO NOT need to apologize for those days that you are! And Yet, YOU are beautiful!!! ...Because You never stop giving to other people, You never stop loving or caring or sharing your faith with so MANY people....! Although we desperately wish so bad that we could - No one can take this away - But know we are all here to help you in ANY WAY that we can! And always remember, YOU are Beautiful....because God made You and chose You! You are Beautiful because You are You!!!!

I am so sorry...I soo wish I could take away the unimaginable pain. It is a feeling of wanting to break out of my skin from the inside out, but I can't. Can't...I hate that word! If I could change it all for you I would in less than a split second. All I can do is tell you how much I Love you and I will pray for you and somehow that doesn't feel like even enough. I am rambbling...but I know you understand this. Rambling, one thing I do when I feel out of control. hmmm, I should be rambling ALL the time then, cause the fact of the matter is, It is only the Lord in Heaven that is in total control. What....are you saying I am always rambling. tee hee...Joking, another thing I do when I feel out of control and when I want to take someone's pain away. I wish I could swoop you up and make it all better. That is normally what I try to do. Well so much for a loss of words tonight. Anyway, hope my crazyness doesn't scare you from turning 40 someday. Love you more than words can convey!

Susie-
Look at you and look at your boys! You are doing it: surviving the unimaginable. One foot after the other---even on the most difficult of days. I'm reading Facing Your Giants by Max Lucado: "Focus on Giants--you stumble. Focus on God---your giants tumble."

You have all faced some of the fiercest giants imaginable. They will tumble as you keep focusing on God.

Still praying for you!

Susie--Lee and I continue to think of you so very often and pray that your life can have some relief by the grace of God. Craig and the kids (Liric now 2 3/4 and Donaven in kindergarten) continue to live in Rochester and have been successful in finding a "norm" although I wonder at times what that is for those of us left behind. Lee and I cannot imagine your sorrow--so very heavy and added to constantly by another loss in the Caring Bridge guestbook. Seems that everywhere you turn is another cancer victim---we need to find the cure for this horrible disease. Please know that we speak of you so often and have told your story to so many. You are in our prayers....Sue and Lee Tollefson (parents of Danielle Sculley Johnson)

Hi Susie,
It's a small world. One of Bryce's aunts was running the marathon and my friend noticed their shirts and knew immediately from my stories that it was your Bryce. The impact that you have had on so many others, many complete strangers to you, is incredible. I tell them of your amazing faith and incredible spirit. It is of a power that is difficult to understand. You are a very special person and your wonderful boys are lucky to have such a loving and caring mother to help them through this unimagineable road to recovery. All of our love and healing...

I have followed many other stories from other parents going through pediatric cancers. I am so very sorry for the pain you have had these past few years and especially at the loss of your faithful husband this past summer. So many people have had answered prayers and for whatever reason, the answers are not always what we wanted to hear. My son Thomas, now 19 is a Hodgkins Lymphoma survivor for 25 months now. One of his best friends, Caz, who also had been diagnosed with cancer a few months after Thomas,( very rare colon cancer for a 17 yr old ) passed away one year after his treatment. I have felt consumed with cancer and log on to the internet to read other stories of hopes and fears. Thank-you for sharing your story and your feelings at this difficult time in your life. I am also a christian and have to believe that THIS life is NOT it. We all will be reunited with our loved ones in heaven some day. That is the best thought I have of what is to come after this life is over. Keep your faith -no matter what.

Hi Susie,
I am so thankful I checked in on you tonight. It's funny as tonight I laid down my my boys I was thinking of little Noelle but had not saved her website and was just thinking I needed to check in on Jackson too. You are too amazing, it felt like you read my mind. We have been continuing our prayers for Jamie. Olivia continues to ask each night, who is that other person we need to say blessings for and I remind her Jamie and her family. She always remembers your family too. She's such a sweet girl!

Sending you a big hug!

Susie-
Just know that it is okay when you don't have the words to write. Please use all the people that support you to lean on. You are an inspiration, but let us inspire you. Even when we look to God for comfort, we have a sense of yearning for our loved ones, it is human nature. When you have the bad days, its okay to not know what to say and to say nothing. So many people are thinking and praying for you each and every day. You are strong but the love for you is stronger than you will ever know. I know this weekend will be tough with Jamie about to touch the face of God. Know that many people are praying for you, your boys, Jamie and her family. God bless you during this time in your life.

Thinking of you daily from far away. Thank you for touching my life.

Jaci turned 5 on Monday!!! I can't believe how fast time has gone. You and your family has inspired me to enjoy every minute of it! Miss you and hope to see or talk to you very soon! Good night my angel!

Susie - Know that we are thinking about you and the boys each and every day - Knowing that memories are sure to be flooding back to you. Tonight as I checked Jamie's site - Laura was with me as we read your entry. Laura looked at me and said, "Mom, How does Susie always know just what to say?" I told her it's because Susie is truly one of God's angels here on earth and we are so blessed to call her a friend. You are always thinking of others. Just remember, if you need me, I am here for you. I'm so glad that God put us together. Hugs to you and the boys.

Susie, words cannot express how much you and your family are loved. I struggle to find a reason why you have had to endure so much pain. The only thing I can think is that God has chosen you, his special child, to help Jamie, Zach, and the boys. You are so special......please know how much you are loved and that you and your boys are in our daily prayers. Forever and ever.

Dearest Susie When I see you I just want to give you a big hug. You are such a special person and I can not imagine the pain that you have. I pray for you daily and your boys. The other night I went by the cemetery and saw the lighted cross and it was beautiful to see. I have not seen the stone up close but Lana said its very beautiful. Your closeness to Zach and Jaimies family is remarkable, to be there for them must bring back all the hurts again. Your faith is so strong and keeps you going every day. Know that we are thinking of you alot. Love Marilyn

Susie:
It's Sherry from Ohio. My heart goes out to you as you deal with yet another impending loss in your friend,Jamie. How wonderful though that she and her family have your love and support and that you were able to speak to her sons.May you all be strengthened and comforted through this time. I imagine Bryce and Tim have "visited" Jamie. I know when my father was dying he often suddenly opened his eyes and "tracked" something on the ceiling for a few minutes. I knew it was angels, or those who went before him in his family, I just knew! It was comforting to me and I hope it was to him. You are all in my prayers Susie.

Dearest Susie~

I just had to let you know how proud I am of you. What you have been doing for Zach, Jamie and their entire family is just awesome. I was so glad to read in Jamie's journal that you were there to help explain to the boys what was happening with their Mommy. You of all people know all too well what they are going through and what the days, weeks, months and years ahead hold in store for them. There will be some very tough times ahead for sure, but having God (and people like you) in their lives will help guide them through those times. God is working through you to help the O'Reilly family...isn't He amazing??!! As you already know, helping others in their time of need will help bring you healing as well.

God Bless,
Julie

Dear Susie,
I am so inspired by how strong you are. I am sitting here reading Jamies journals and then popped over to Bryces site. I love reading your passages and I am sitting here crying because they are so powerful. I just want you to know that you are an amazing person. Keep the faith strong and it will carry you through as it has been doing. You have been through a lot and I want you to know I think of you and your loved ones often and will keep your family in my prayers. Love Nikky

Thanks for the update Susie, think about you daily~~ Carolyn


Lose My Soul
TobyMac (Featuring Kirk Franklin and Mandisa)

Man I wanna tell ya’ll something, Man.
Man I’m not gonna let these material
thing’s, get in my way, ya’ll.
I’m trying to get somewhere.
I’m trying to get somewhere,
That’s real and pure and true and eternal.

Father God, I am clay in your hands,
Help me to stay that way through all life’s demands,
‘Coz they chip and they nag and they pull at me,
And every little thing I make up my mind to be,
Like I’m gonna be a daddy whose in the mix,
And I’m gonna be a husband who stays legit,
And I pray that I’m an artist who rises above,
The road that is wide and filled with self love,
Everything that I see draws me,
Though it’s only in You that I can truly
see that its a feast for the eyes a low
blow to purpose.
And I’m a little kid at a three ring circus.

I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
Don’t wanna walk away, let me hear the people say.
I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
Don’t wanna walk away, let me hear the people say.

(Mr. Franklin, Step up to the mic sir)

The paparazzi flashes, and that they think that it’s you,
But they don’t know that who you are is not what you do,
True, we get it twisted when we peak at the charts,
Yo before we part from the start,
Where’s your heart?
You a pimp, hustler?
Tell me what’s your title,
America has no more stars, now we call them idols,
You sit idle, While we teach prosperity,
The first thing to prosper should be inside of me.
We’re free…
Not because of 22’s on the range,
But Christ came in range, we said yes now we changed,
Not the same, even though I made a fall,
Since I got that call, no more Saul, now I’m Paul.

I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
Don’t wanna walk away, let me hear the people say.
I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
Don’t wanna walk away, let me hear the people say.
Don’t wanna walk away,
Don’t wanna walk away

Mandisa
How do I sense the tide that’s rising?
De-sensitizing me from living in light of eternity,
How do I sense the tide that’s rising?
It’s hypnotizing me from living in light of eternity,
How do I sense the tide that’s rising?
De-sensitizing me from living in light of eternity.

(Lord what we gonna do,We’re relying on you,
all eyes are on you Lord,
all eyes are on you, all eyes are on you Jesus.)

I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
Don’t wanna walk away, let me hear the people say.
(Don’t let me lose my soul, my soul.)
I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
(This is my honesty, Father, won’t you cover me.)
I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
(Don’t wanna walk away, and all those people say)
I don’t want to gain the whole world, and lose my soul,
(Don’t wanna lose, I don’t wanna lose my soul.)

Lord forgive us when we get consumed by
the things of this world,
That fight for our love, and our passion,
As our eyes are open wide and on you.
Grant us the privilege of your world view,
And may your kingdom be, what wakes us up, and lays us down.

(Hallelujah, Don’t wanna lose our soul,
No, Don’t wanna lose my soul.)

Hey excuse me,
I’m looking or the after party,
Toby,
Ha ha, yeah, last door on the left, you’ll hear it.
Thanks,
No problem.

Don’t let me lose my soul, I never wanna walk away,
I don’t wanna lose my soul,
No, no, no.
Don’t let me, don’t let me, lose my soul,
I don’t wanna walk away,
Don’t let me walk away,
Na na na na no,
Don’t let me lose, my soul,
I’m never gonna walk away

Hi, Susie. Just as happens every night as I get ready for bed, my thoughts drift to you and I find myself sending prayers of peace and comfort....strength and hope. I hope today was a good day. I spent the day indoors...scrapbooking and doing a few little things to prepare for Emma's Hope, which will be here in two weeks. There's not too much to do right now, but it will pick up this next week. I pray that we very soon will see some amazing discoveries in the area of childhood cancers....discoveries that will save more and more of our children. I love you.......angie

I was out mowing the lawn on Monday and while I was between the line of trees and the corn field, I noticed what I thought was leaves blowing down from the trees. I didn't pay much attention at first. Well, it didn't dawn on me until about the third pass that they were pine trees and didn't have leaves, duh!! I stopped mowing and looked up and there all around me were monarch butterflies floating and flying. There must have been over twenty of them. I guess those caterpillars we have been watching all summer finally hatched out!

Good morning Susie,
I am sure you were busy getting your boys off to
school. I think of your family each day. My cousin lost her husband, Dan (30 years old) 2 years ago this Sept. 8 from cholangiocarcinoma, and she sent this to me in honor of Dan's memory. He left behind his loving wife and 4 children. I thought of you and I wanted to share this.
She happened to meet this man last Friday and they were talking about life and she shared her loss of her husband, Dan. He wanted to share this letter that his grandmother wrote to her family before she passed. He said to share it with anyone else.

"I'm Only A Prayer Away"

My loved Ones:
I am embarking now on a new adventure – the step from this life into the next. For me it is an exciting change – part of the Divine plan for all of us where more of life, not less, is offered.
I am not leaving you , my beloved family and friends. I am as near as your thoughts. My deepest love and purest blessing is with you every moment. Not that I stand constant guard, monitoring your every thought and act. Not ever that. But when your thoughts turn to me I will be there as I am now, moving among you, my hand on your shoulder, a kiss on your forehead.
As you need and miss me less, I will go on about my life, growing here as you grow there, toward higher goals, learning and helping others. But always I will love you as dearly from this side as from there.
Do not continue in your grief for me. I want your happiness, your freedom, your own best good. I am free now of the bondage of earth, free to grow with my loved ones here, towards the next wonderful step.
My prayer is that you will always be gentle and loving with yourself and your loved ones and friends. Gentleness is far greater than force for it is re-inforced with Love.
Waste no time regretting what is past, anymore than you would worry about last year's cold, but know, instead, that what is right and good for you and yours is now taking place within your own universe. I am convinced of that.
Someday I will meet you all here where time is irrelevant and we are not encumbered by a heavy earthly body. Where we see without shadow or cloud and where beauty and love are more intense.
You are all good, my children, my grandchildren, my family, my friends. I am seeing you now, my love pouring over you.
It's is a beautiful day! Be in peace! With all my love.

Dearest Susie.....I am mailing off a letter to you tomorrow....an overdue one. ;) You are on my mind so much of the time. I was thinking about all the back to school craziness and got to wondering about school in Heaven. I bet they have the coolest folders and pencils and pens....and they probably don't cost a penny. And I bet Bryce gets to choose what he wants to learn about--farming, perhaps? A little Tractor 101? :) I pray for your peace and strength and hope.......loveyou.....angie

You are such a wonderful example to all of us believers. God must be so pleased. You have inspired me in so many ways. Thank you! I read the Bible each day and it gives me so much strength and encouragement, but then I come to this site and feed from it, as well. You have had the hardest things imaginable happen to you, yet you are the ones lifting us up repeatedly. I love how faith is unchanging and is the same as it was during Moses' time. Our purpose of life is to please God and to do His will, yet our human nature has a way of interfering. It is people like you, your example, and your struggle that keeps inspiring and encouraging people to do His will. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a true gift from God, an amazing mentor sharing your pain and your wisdom. It is God who is first place and who is number one in our hearts and because of that, we have hope for an amazing, peaceful eternal life in Heaven with our loved ones where there is no pain. Thank you for the bread you provide to us from your experiences and your amazing love. I truly appreciate it more than words can say.
Love,

Not a day goes by that we don't think of you, and while it saddens us to know that you are hurting, it brings a smile to our face as well because you are such a special person and mean so much to us!

Are the boys ready for school? It is hard to believe school will be starting next week! Yikes! Where has the summer gone...

Hoping today is a good day, filled with lots of sunshine guiding you throughout your day.

Susie~
I am so grateful for your courage to continue in your journal entries. I feel with my whole heart that you are here to lead and teach us in the ways of God. Your words of inspiration, truth, and never-ending faith are the words that many of us long to hear and what a gift you have to provide that, even through your own trials. I know that you do not doubt this, but you really are a servant of our God, and you are doing job beautifully. Thank you for all that you give each day, I really don't think you know the impact that you have on so many. I fully believe that you are preparing so many of us, giving us the daily food of God's word, goodness, and greatness. I thank Him daily for leading me to you and your words. I may never meet you in person, or have the honor to sit down with you in fellowship, but somehow, that is OK! My soul is repaired, my thoughts are renewed, and my heart is healed with the goodness of God's work that you do with the power of your words. So, with that....THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! Praise God, HE IS GOOD!!

Oh Susie, I hope you can let those innermost thoughts out and write them. They need to see the light of day. I know you mean that you don't want to burden anyone else with your needs and thoughts. You can't yet really share them with another person. But do try to write. Best wishes for the start of the school year and the coming harvest. It's a rich time of year, full of many meanings.

Dearest loving Susie & Boys, I am finally getting around to say that I am praying for you all and know that God is carrying you all through this. It has been very hard for me to "say" "I'm sorry for your loss" or anything like that because to me while I truely mean them they are just words. By now you know of the benefit I have put together for you. I want no thanks because the glory goes to God who has become more real in my life then ever before and that is amazing to me. I told Sara the other day I thought this benefit was my idea. It is now very apparent that the one pulling the strings (I am just a puppet) is way bigger then I will ever be. I just happen to be the vessel He decided to use. Know that my heart aches for you all. Know that you are loved greatly. Know that you have touched many lifes in many ways and for that I am in awe of you. God has blessed you! I love you!

Hello Susie & Boys~
Every time I read your entries it is so awesome to hear your God moments from your men in heaven! Susie you are an amazing disciple of the Lord that thru it all keeps sharing His truths and promises. I pray regularly that this always gives you the comfort and wisdom as I know it can. In church last week we sang this song "My reward" by Paul Baloche you will have to see if you can listen to it. The Lord brought you to mind when we were singing so I wanted to pass that on. We love you all and so does your Father in heaven.

I just wanted to drop you a line and let you and the family know that you continue to be in my thoughts/prayers. You are an amazing woman with a huge heart, and faith beyond words.

In reading your last entry I noted that my Gavin was celebrating his Birthday just one day prior to Tim. I bet it was a great weekend bash up there.

And with that said, I can only trust in the Lord that my son has met Brycer and Tim, and for that I find comfort for you have an amazing family, and never forget that you are an amazing woman.

Dear Susie and boys,
Thank you for sharing your personal feelings, stories and emtions with us. I didn't have the opportunity to know Tim very well, so I love to hear the great stories about how wonderful he was as a husband and father. It is so great to hear that you and the boys found comfort and even some smiles during Camp, and that you celebrated Tim's birthday with love. I know God is caring for you and helping you all through such a terrible time. It is also reassuring to hear about all of the support you are getting from your family and friends. You are constantly in our thoughts and prayers. Sending you love and hugs!

She is like a Mom to me! You may have met her on the day of Michaels(Dee calls him this) wedding. We normally enjoy a morning chat everyday sitting outside. She is always sharing about her family. Its amazing how God connects so many people. I want to tell you thanks for being YOU! I love everything about you!

Susie,
Thanks for sharing your wonderful signs and your faith. You are a huge reason why Mark and I have grown so much in our faith. We have felt that pain of losing a child and as you have said so many times, just giving it to God is how you get through. In our daily devotions we are reminded over and over again to live for today. You cannot change yesterday and you shouldn't worry about tomorrow. We try to do that as much as possible. If you have not heard of Faith's Lodge I would like to share some about it so call or email. We were there this weekend and it is such a great place. Maybe you and the boys would enjoy it. www.faithslodge.org.
God bless you Susie and I hope you have a day of wonderful memories and more of those signs to lift you up.

Happy Birthday Tim, I hope your celebration in heaven was a beautiful one with Bryce.

Sounds like you have all had so many wonderful moments & memories lately with signs, camp, weddings, friends and family and I am so happy that God is watching over you and taking such beautiful care of you. Please know that I am always just a phone call away and only 10 minutes from ya so call anytime. Love you all and by Gods Grace Faith will walk with you. All my many prayers each day. Jodi

Susie,
Hope tonight you found comfort in sharing many memories of Tim on his Birthday!!!
We had a busy week and so I just read your last 2 entries. Of course I am crying now...but I just wanted to tell you how truly thankful I am that our lives crossed paths!!!! I feel so blessed that my family had the opportunity to know Bryce and Tim and the whole Breu Crew! What an inspiration of faith your family has been to us and to SO MANY OTHERS!
This all seems so unreal to me still....oh how I wish that you did not have to go through this awful loss of a loved one again!! Know that so many of us would take this pain away from you in a heartbeat...if we only could. But my mind is simple and being only human - I cannot see the big picture that only God knows.... What a blessing for you to see God's hands all over everything even in your grief! You are amazing!! As you say, "With God's Grace" you will get through this and YOU WILL!!! Also remember, on days when you need a little extra help - know that we will all be there for you too - whenever you need your family and friends! May it continue to bring you comfort to know how many people love your family and are praying for you!
Love and Prayers Always!!!

Susie, I was thinking of you in church tonight as we focused on the word "faith", and yours is about as incredible as it gets!!. We sang the hymn "My Faith Looks Up to Thee" and these last 2 versus made me think of you!

While life's dark maze I tread, and griefs around me spread, be thou my guide, bid darkness to today, wipe sorrow's tears away, nor let me every stray, from thee aside.

When ends life's transient dream, when death's cold, sullen stream, shall o'er me roll, blest Savior then in love, fear and distrust remove, o bear me safe above, a ransomed soul.

Thoughts and prayers are with you today on Tim's birthday! May it ease your pain that he and Bryce are celebrating together today!

Happy Birthday to your beloved, Tim. I hope that you and your boys, Tim's parents, your parents, all who loved and cared for Tim and Bryce are able to celebrate this day with the many memories they have left you with. Those we love live on in our hearts in the memories we cherish. I, too, saw the double rainbow last Wednesday. I, of course, thought of Carter, which in turn makes me think of Bryce and so many others who have passed on and must leave us signs to comfort us and bring a smile to our face. We know that all is well with them as we at times struggle to go on with life without them here with us. May Tim and Bryce send you many signs of their unending love and God's amazing grace. You and your family are truly blessed, Susie, and we who have come to know you are also so blessed. Thank you for sharing your family and faith.

Happy Birthday Tim!
Susie I look forward to reading Bryce's CB site every time I am on the computer. Today I am moving to Cleveland, OH. I already miss seeing you and your family and now I will be even further from all of you. Reading Bryce's site reminds me of all the times we got to chat when ever I babysat or helped out with MaryKay. Your writing is inspiring. Say hi to the boys for me.

Love,

Hey Sister Susie and Boys,
Happy Birthday Tim (Oldman)!LOL Well Susie as you probally know, we are on the Mainland in Jacksonville, Florida and we are thinking of you and the boys. We had a great(Windom)family re-union and are headed back down to Miami in about 30 minutes. It will be a 5 hour drive normally, but we have about 5 cars filled with family and I expect it will take a lil longer. We are aching to get back up there on Thursday, so we can spend time with you all (ya'll)...don't want Mitch to tease me anymore..he hurts my feelings. LOL Anyway we love you and can't wait to see you and the boys, our thoughts and prayers are with you today.
Love Uncle Chris and Family.

Susie,
We know of your family & what all you have been through with Bryce & now Tim because of mutual friends (Lisa Peine and Brian & Brandon Schafer & families). When I first heard about Tim's passing, I couldn't & didn't want to believe it because I know how heartbroken I would be if my husband passed away unexpectedly. I took the time tonight to read your journal entries. They are beautiful & so full of love for God and your family. I can only hope to be filled with the tremendous faith that you have and that you are instilling in your children. I also wanted to let you know that I was a participant in the Mississippi Shuffle-Relay for Life in Red Wing last night and I happened to find many luminaries for Bryce and there even a few for Tim. It brought tears to my eyes to know that so many people are out there supporting your family in ways you probably don't even know about.

With love in Christ,
Lisa, Andy, Josie, Johnathan, & Jaclyn Jenson

I read your latest entry and the tears came with no sign of stopping! I didn't know Tim but it sounds like he's an amazing father! I'm so glad to hear that camp allowed the boys to take there minds of everything for a bit. It let them be boys again! You have all went through so much and you are all so strong! I was told, more than once while I was at camp, that you are an amazing person and after being able to chat with you I totally understood what everybody was saying! Susie you are a wonderful mother, wife, and friend! Thank you again for giving me the chance to get to know you and the boys this past week!

God was steering me to read your caringbridge site today...as usual, I am saying... Lord, I already read and See Susie hasn't updated..then God says go to the guestbook entries...I say "okkkk." So I did and the last entry in the book was from Allie O'reily, I copied and pasted it and hanging it up in my bathroom as a reminder when I have certain, not so pleasant days. Thanks be to God for using everything and everyone in your life to touch countless numbers of peoples lives. Had to share my God moment today with you.

"Anytime God is about to take you to a new level you’re going to face opposition. There will be new battles to fight and new obstacles to overcome. It’s easy to get discouraged and think, “Why is this happening?” But we have to change our thinking and focus on the fact that on the other side of those challenges is a new level of victory—a new level of success. David would only be known as a shepherd boy if it weren’t for Goliath. David’s enemy became the tool that God used to promote him. And God will do the same in your life today. He’ll use those challenges and difficulties in your life to catapult you towards success!

If you are going through a hard time today, if things look impossible, don’t give up now. Change your perspective and believe that God is working behind the scenes. Put a smile on your face and stand in confidence knowing that you are a child of the Most High God. When all is said and done, you’re not just going to come out of that difficulty, but you’re coming out stronger, wiser, and better than you were before! That problem is going to be the catalyst for God to open supernatural doors of opportunity for you! Stand strong in the Lord today and trust that what the enemy meant for your harm, God will turn around and use to your advantage. He’ll take you places you never dreamed and cause you to rise higher and higher in every area of your life!

I don't know your family, but it is so clear to me that you were all put on this earth to bring people to the Lord. Never have I been so inspired by a persons faith, love and attitude. You are a true testement to God. I think you will all have a very special place in heaven together as a family. May God's presence be strong in your lives each day. May he calm you hearts and give you peace and joy. You are an amazing woman. God Bless you and you boys.

Hi Susie,
I just had to write to tell you how much I enjoyed seeing you and your boys this past week. I had wondered if you would all be there with Tim's passing, but I totally understand how it was the right thing for them and for you at such a perfect time. That camp is so amazing, and I am impressed with each person that helps out. I think God handpicks those people to be with our kids for that week. My kids always come home with such wonderful experiences with their new friends and the counselor friends.

I was a bit stressed today about the thought of getting my four kids all together and getting packed back up by myself, but Olivia and Emma made this wonderful friend (who is actually from the same school they go to but she's in high school). This gal was right there to help with Wyatt and even helped carry things to our van. It is so great that these counselors give all of their love, kindness, and sincerity to each of the kids that are there. I truly think they are amazing people.

Please know that we will continue to keep your family in our prayers. You are thought about quite often here and we just want you to know that. Loving hugs sent your way!

Hi Susie! It was so good to see you today, and the boys looked happy today. I hope today was a good day. I am sure you have your good and bad ones. It warmed my heart and brought tears to my eyes to see Jackson hugging you today after the program was over at camp. He is such a "lover" that one! Hannah and I were talking in the car while Tim and Jackson were getting his blood drawn, and I told her that Jackson was quite a "schmoozer", and asked her if she knew what that ment. She said no. I told her it's someone that can talk you into almost anything, and can talk you out of almost anything too. She said, "yep, that's Jack!" She said when he wanted something, he'd cuddle up next to one of the girl counselors and look at them w/ his big eyes and bald head, and ask, "can we go get some food?" That made me laugh!

This week was an emotional one for me... I am so glad to be home with them.

Love,

Susie and Boys ~
My heart aches for you. I have followed you through Bryce's journey and have been thinking about you the last few weeks after reading the news of Tim. I am sure no words will take your pain away, but Susie you are an amazing woman. You say Tim was the BEST OF THE BEST and he also had the BEST OF THE BEST - YOU and you were wonderful together, I know he knew that. Your love is inspiring for all relationships to find that bond and strength you two shared. Your incredible boys have the BEST mom too, so strong and positive. I don't know how you do it, but you certainly inspire me as a mom and a wife as well as a person as a whole. I think of you often and wish I could meet you in person.

Susie and boys,
You are always in our thoughts and prayers. It sounds like your camp venture is going great. It is so beautiful hear your stories of hope, love and above all, the laughter that you share with others. Ethan stopped by today with Grandma Linda and had fun teasing Ryan. He was so sweet with his funny antics he and Ryan were sharing. It brings us such joy to see that beautiful little boy smile and laugh. It is so very hard to watch our children in pain no matter how old they are. What great fun with the car show. How great for the boys and I am sure Tim and Bryce were laughing and smiling right along with you. Congratulations! Tim always thought that car was a chick magnet. He got you and how lucky was that. Have a great day tomorrow and know how much we love you.
Walking in faith with you,
Ni and Terry

Unfortunately, this is not easy on those surviving but God has us under his wing and will take good care of us.

We've never met as I've said before,probably never will, but I will NEVER forget Susie Breuer or her amazing family anytime soon.Tim and Bryce are so happy to be reunited (it's so hard to comprehend the joy....). Both are with you all, always. I hope your wonderful "signs" continue from both your Brycer and your wonderful Tim. I continue to lift you up in prayer each day. God bless you!

Susie and Family,

Your journal entries are so inspiring to me!! It is amazing how you are able to put your thoughts and feelings into words. They touch so many of us out in this world!! And I, along with many others, feel honored to be able to share our thoughts and prayers with you. And it's nice to know that someone else let's their children fall asleep cuddling with them. Life is way too short, and letting our children cuddle with us is a wonderful feeling for both the child and parent. It's a beautiful thing!!! :)

We continue to keep you in our thoughts and prayers. We hope that God continues to wrap His love around your entire family and bring you comfort.

And my only story of Tim was how amazed I was that you two could play co-ed volleyball together and always seem to be happy playing with eachother. The love you two shared was infectious! Anyone could see it when they watched you two or were around you.

May God Bless you all!!!

I am a resident of Rochester and recently had the chance to read your article in the PB written by Dawn Schuett. What a story. I really at am a loss for words because I cannot even begin to imagine the journey you have been. But I must tell you what GREAT encouragement I took from your powerful testimony of personal faith. Wow. What a message for wives, mothers, children, fathers, whomever may face deep challenges in their lives. So, for the small amount of what it may be worth, thank you. I have been praying for you and your boys.
God's unmistakable peace to you.

We dropped the kids off at camp and I thought of you the whole time. I wasn't sure if we would run into you or not, if you would be up to bringing the boys. Hopefully you did, and hopefully I will run into on Friday when I pick them up.

You are always in my thoughts and prayers!

Susie & boys, We are friend of Megan & Shawn Erickson & boys. I remember the first time going up to see Brock when he was diagnosed Megan told me about a very nice family whose son had also been diagnosed with leukemia - the Breu Crew!! I have never gotten the opportunity to meet any of but I feel like I have known you for a long time through stories that Megan shares and reading Bryce's website. I pray that you find strength in the days to come. I would be happy to do anything for any of you - please let me know. I also told Megan to let me know if she hears of anything you need.

I thought of you when I read this. I pray for your comfort.

If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane,
We would walk all the way to Heaven, to bring you home again
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say good-bye
You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why
Our hearts ache in sadness, and secret tears will flow
What is meant to lose you, no one will ever know

God bless you all.

As I read through your journal I am so deeply touched by the work that God is doing in the lives and hearts of all who read these beautiful entries. It is such a beautiful testimony of your love and life together! What a surrounding of caring friends & family you have. I truly believe that Jesus is being received into many many hearts as people are witness to your strength and faith in Him. I think of you all the time, and your handsome young men. I loved the wonderful tribute article in the paper. What a special love you shared. I want to be able to work with you forever Susie, you are an awesome and amazing woman of God. I am always here for you if there is ever anything I can do.

Susie; will you and your boys ever know how many lives your family has touched?! I hope so!! There are so many people out here thinking of you and praying for you. Take care, keep sharing and we'll keep praying.

I read the article in the paper via Melanie's site and hope you don't mind that I also posted the link to it on Carter's site.

I just want to share with you that my great niece, Addison, was over the other night for a visit and I got out the farm set that Bryce gave Carter when he was in the hospital. She loved playing with it; thank you. Not sure if you remember or not but Carter passed away just three days after Bryce. They will never be forgotten. Neither will you or your family and the positive impact you have had on so many. Thank you for sharing your famiy and faith!! God bless you.

I hope you are all enjoying Camp Jornada!

I have 2 memories of Tim I wanted to share...
The first one was a while ago, I think it was my 7th or 8th birthday. Jody & I were staying with Grandma & Grandpa Buck while Mom & Dad were on vacation in Washington D.C. Well, it was the day of my birthday & Grandma told me she had forgotten my birthday. So she took a hotdog & put some birthday candles on it for my cake. I was less than thrilled! (I have a picture of Jody, Auntie Shell, Aundie Manda & I with my "birthday cake" I'll have to share with you sometime!) Well, it came time to open presents... and Tim, being the GREAT cousin he is, gave me a BRICK for my birthday! He even wrapped it up nicely in a shoe box! I have a photo of that, as well! Boys, can you believe your dad would do that to me??

The other memory I wanted to share was our road trip to Chicago for Tom's wedding! We had 3 car loads of people heading to Chicago together, and Tim had brought along their radios so we could keep in contact with each other along the way. I was driving my car along with Dad, Darren & Irma. ( I don't know if they'll ever ride with me again!) Anyway, we must have gotten seperated for a bit and had lost radio contact with the others. When we finally got in contact with them again, Mom (aka: Aunt Carol) was a bit concerned that we had taken a wrong turn. Maybe it didn't help that we had passed mile marker 122 and we told her it was marker #22! Just wanted to see what she would say.... so she frantically radios to Tim & asks "Tim, what do you think??" And Tim, with that laid back personality, says very calmly, "Ahh, I think she's full of sh**!!!" We have never laughed so hard!!! That was a great road trip!

Tim really was the BEST of the BEST! We will miss him so very, very much! Sending big hugs to you all & wishing there was more we could do! Please call on us for anything!! WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Susie, what a beautiful picture and article that was in the Post Bulletin. Katherine and Will loved reading it too.

We think of you every day. I hope the boys will be able to go to Camp Jornada this year. A diversion may be a good thing for them. I hope I am able to see you there, if only briefly.

We love you and your family with all of our hearts. Please know you can call upon us, among many, for anything you need.

I want to share good news with you that I know you'd want to know. Will had clear scans again this week. While I don't always understand, or sometimes outright questions God's plan for our families, God is good.

I hope to see you soon.

Blessings to all of you,

Liz

I love reading all your words, you are so honest and real. How the truth pours out of you, and no matter what you have to say, even if its hard, you say it with such grace and peace. I wish with all my heart that more people could just see the truth and peace in their lives and stop trying so hard to force things that are unforceable. "Being" and allowing the Lord, our WONDERFUL Lord to do the rest. Thank-you for being you and thank-you for teaching us all so much about enduring life with the Lord our God!! I love you so much!!

Hi Susie and boys,
I just embedded your article on Sierra's page. They did a wonderful job describing the ultimate love that you and Tim have. I know people will have a hard time beleiving this but you and your family were more blessed than anyone I know. You have had 5 beautiful boys that came from the most loving relationship between 2 wonderful people. And despite the ultimate pain and loss you continue to hold onto you Faith and pass that Faith onto those wonderful boys. Your Love, Faith and Family is something some people never find in a whole lifetime, only because they don't know how to Believe in it!

When we were looking at the pictures during visitation I was so amazed. As I looked at the pictures of Tim growing up I could see all the boys at different phases in Tim's life. From the picture as a toddler that could have easily been mistaken for Ethan all the way up to your wedding pictures where he looked just like Mitchell, and everything in between.

I know you will need many different things as you begin to heal. From many many Prayers and to much needed quiet time with just you and the boys. But when you need anything else be it a hug or just someone to talk to about nothing at all, please remember I am just a phone call away!!

We Love you all and you are in our thoughts and Many Many Prayers.

Lots of CB ((((Hugs)))) and ++++Prayers++++ to you and your family!

Oh Susie, I'm crying right along with you. I'm SO sorry you have to endure all this pain. Losing Bryce was more than enough to deal with and now the love of your life. I seriously can't imagine the pain...losing a child was more than I could handle. I think about you every day and pray you're finding some peace in your heart. You're right...God will provide and he will get us through when we don't think we can do it on our own. He's always there lifting us up and holding us. You're such an amazing person and I admire your strength. Believe me, I know you don't always feel as strong as you sound. I remember the days when everyone told tell me how strong I was after Brenna passed away. My insides were falling apart, but I held it together on the outside (with God's help, of course). I want so badly to be there for you, even though I wouldn't know what to do. Just keep remembering all of us out here that love you and your boys. Bryce brought so many people together and we all want to help in any way we can, even if it's just through thoughts and prayers. Take care and God bless you and your boys.

Love, hugs, and prayers,
Julie

Susie, & boys,
I am still feeling horrible that we were out of town during Tim's celebration of life...I am waiting to give you a HUGE hug in the hopes that it takes a little of the pain away. You are all on the minds of our family daily as we go on with our routines in the house and on the farm, and are in our prayers each and every night. Kjersten has been especially worried about Joel. I am still trying to understand how you could be allowed to deal with this, so I cannot imagine how difficult it is for all of the children who know your boys. Please know that we are holding you all up in prayer. We hope to see you real soon so that we can give you those hugs. All of our love and prayers,
Casey, Mike, Kjersten & Liv

Susie and boys-
Very nice article in the paper, and also a very nice picture of you and your boys.
There are a lot of people praying for you in the Brainerd/Baxter area, and by knowing these prayer warriors...they will be praying for you through out their lifetime.
Susie, thank you for sharing your life, thoughts, tears, joys, feelings and inspirational words with us. Not only does it show us how to specifically pray for you and yours, but your words (and the lives of Bryce and your Main Man) also blesses us. Your words of their lives touches so deeply into my heart and soul that I too feel the love that your family experienced(es). YOU are a blessing, and I lift you and your family up in prayer, may you have many "Tim" moments...as well as many "Bryce" moments, to help you through out this journey that lays ahead of you. May you feel Jesus' presence with you always during this journey. When you are exhausted, may you fall deeply into his arms and find rest, when you are joyful, may you express it with out any quilt or sadness. There is such a comfort in knowing that you are not taking this journey alone. (I have a vision in my head of the cell phone commercial and you having a whole "network" of people walking with you! Jesus, your Main Man, your Brycer, family and friends.)
Always in His hands,

Hi Suzie,
You probably don't remember me, I worked at Fairview during the years Bryce was sick. You and your family has stayed in my thoughts since then. I was saddened to hear about your loss with Tim's passing. I can't imagine your loss, I know you are a stong woman though and you have 4 wonderful boys there to help you along too. I just wanted to let you know that after all these years, the Breuer Family is still in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm truly in awe of your faith! I strive to have faith that is as strong and focused as yours. I am so honored to know you and your wonderful family. I agree that God has a plan and He does put people in our lives that He knows we will need someday. You are an inspiration to so many...I know I have said that before, but I really mean that. Bryce and Tim are smiling down at you right now and are so proud that you were chosen by God to be their Mom and wife.

Love and hugs,

Susie,
You & your family continue to be in our prayers.You have touched so many. I sent out a prayer request to my prayer partners to pray for Tim & all the Breuers & received an e-mail from my one friend asking if Tim was Bryce's dad. It seems Michelle's(who you helped when she was in graduate school working on grief.She is working in peds oncology)mom is a friend of my friend from church. I will send you the e-mails I received later. It gave me goosebumps & I realized how small this vast world is and how we are connected by our Lord & Savior. God is good! I continue to pray for peace in your heart. God Bless you!
Love & prayers, Ellen

Susie,

You have such an amazing talent of putting your thoughts into words...and we appreciate you sharing them with all of us.

One little memory of Tim is a Halloween party at Dave and Joy's, I don't remember what year, as they all blend together, but I think you were in the hospital with a baby, not sure. Tim had to come to the party alone and he wore a mask and football shoulder pads and jersey, and no one could tell who he was. Everyone kept talking to him and he just sat there quietly and shrugged. It was driving me crazy so I kept talking to him positive I would figure it out, but I never did until he got hot and took the mask off. He had so much fun with everyone trying to figure out who he was!

We are thinking of you and the boys every single day!

Dear Susie,
We met tonight in the most unlikely of places, we being Chicago fans and you and Logan fervant Twins followers. God gives us people to love and cherish, and then welcomes them Home with comfort, joy, and love when their fragile vessels depart this earth. Could it be that God introduced us tonight?

I am profoundly sorry and so very sad for you, your boys, and everyone that knew and loved Bryce and Tim.

Perhaps we might keep in touch.

Susie ~
Not a moment goes by that I don't think about you! I want to be right next to you to hold your hand, clean your house, cook your meals, sit quiet for whenever you're ready to talk, cry, laugh.
Being far away is so hard. I want to help you with whatever you need. There is so much that I want to say to you but in time we will talk and I know that there will be tears and laughter as we talk about the loves of your life.
Tim and Bryce are very special to us and I have been envisioning them on their farm and how Tim is watching the "Amber waves of grain" and how Bryce is giving his daddy big hugs.
When we left your house Alyssa kept saying Bry Bry and I couldn't figure out what she was talking about until we were almost done with our appointments and then it hit me. She was saying Bryce. I asked her if Bryce was her friend and she got all silly and smiled and said "I love Bryce" That just made my day. Not only did she say Bryce but she remembers blowing bubbles with him and sitting on his lap.
On Friday the 25th as you were having one of your toughest days, we were celebrating Alyssa's 3rd birthday and trust me Bob and I had a lot of emotions that day. Knowing that you and the boys were hurting so bad and having to go through all the emotions of what you had just so recently gone through.
We are so thankful that we have been through Cancer because without it, we wouldn't know you and your wonderful family. We are so sad for what you're enduring.
Please know that our day starts with a prayer for you and the boys and as Bob and I lay in bed at night we pray for you together. Susie, you and Tim helped us through so much and please know that we will do anything to help you too.
Thank you for sharing your love for God with us, you remind me just how Awesome our God is.
We love you, Bob and Tawnia

Your family is in our blessings...
Tiny Angels rest your wings
sit with me for awhile.
How I long to hold your hand,
and see your tender smile.
Tiny Angel, look at me,
I want this image clear....
That I will forget your precious face
is my biggest fear.
Tiny Angel can you tell me,
Why you have gone away?
You weren't here for very long....
Why is it, you couldn't stay?
Tiny Angel shook his head,
"These things I do not know....
But I do know that you love me,
And that I love you so".

Oh, Susie, my heart breaks for you and your boys. All is well with Tim and Bryce. It is those left behind that must learn to go on without them. When Carter died (just three days after Bryce), I bought him one last book; "The Next Place" by Warren Hanson. Then, I bought a book for Alysa, Carter's mom, "Beginning" also by Warren Hanson.

Beginning can be bittersweet, and hard to comprehend. It can mean that some sweet, precious part of life is at an End. And the Heart can feel so Hollow when is has to say Good-bye that the thought of starting Over is too Hard to even try. But when I reach the End, when all my days are nearly through, I will Not want to look back on all the things I Didn't do, nor regret the Joys and Passions of the me that Might have been if Only I had found the simple Courage to Begin.

I pray that God provide you and your boys, Tim's parents, his siblings, all who loved and cared for him, with the courage to begin again. God bless you all always.

Susie and family,
My thoughts and prayers are still with you, today and always. I'm sure it isn't easy moving forward, but remember to take it one step and day at a time. God will guide you to happiness once again. Your family has inspired so many of us to love more, respect more, laugh more, to hold each other more, play more, and of course, to have faith in God. Thank you for sharing your sorrow and faith with us! You will always be a part of our lives!

Susie, My heart is filled with amazement and many other feelings now. Jill Whalen has been keeping me in the loop. I have thought of you over and over this past week and then Jill shared with me your losses. Praise God, you know who your redeemer is and who is truly in control. Years have seperated us, but the love of God keeps us together. You are loved.

Have thought about you and your sons constantly. It occurred to me that you are being strong for the rest of us-please cry and cry and hold each other and and remember that "Jesus wept", the shortest verse in the Bible, lets us know that Jesus was truly human, that he was very, very sad when his good friend Lazarus died and felt the great sadness of Mary and Martha when their brother died. I pray that your sons know that death at such young ages as Bryce and their dad is very unusual and you and they will probably live a long, long time. It must seem that they are living on "sand". I pray that the family and friends that visit them can instill in them that they are on solid ground.... I also pray that my words may be a comfort and not cause you any distress.

Romans 8:26-39

Paul has such a word of hope for God’s children in Romans. His writings celebrate the depth of God’s actions for us. Through Christ’s death for us and the activity of the Spirit praying for us, we are fused to God’s love poured out in Jesus Christ. Nothing, not even death itself, is able to separate us from such incredible divine love.

Let us pray: Gracious God, we can only give thanks that you have joined us to you forever. We can fear nothing because of your overwhelming love. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

I want to express my sincere sympathy in this unspeakable loss of your beloved husband, and amazing father, Tim. My good friend, Dawn Larson, told me about Tim's passing, and I, too, have not been able to get you or your boys out of my mind since. Bryce and Tim will always be with you -- ALWAYS. God has wrapped his loving arms around you and your family. Be patient and gentle with yourself. Your boys and your extended families will help you through.

Hi Susie and boys~ Thank you for letting us share in your grief and joys Friday at Tim's Celebration of Life! My thoughts and prayers are always with you. The music was beautiful even though the words were so very hard to take in. You all did so well on the Bible readings, I'm sure your dad was very proud of you.
The memory I wanted to share with you was during the last time I was working in your home office and overheard your family praying before lunch. Though each of you shared something you were thankful for I remember hearing two of them well. One was "thankful for the bread" (guessing this was Ethan)and being it was July 11, the day following the straight-line wind damage in the area, Tim said he was thankful that no one was hurt during the storm."
The song I thought of after his passing one day was Every Day is a Gift You've Been Given, Make the Most of the Time Every Minute You're in it.
Your family has taught me that lesson well. And I will continue to see each Day as God's gift. Even asked Dan on the way home from Goodhue Friday how soon we can take his "dream" trip to Alaska. One never knows how many days God has planned for each of us. Thank you for showing me how to see if something has value for eternity and to keep saying I love you each day.
(Also remember you being in Wanamingo for the 4th of July this year with your camper in Grandma Anne's driveway. And Tim playing catch in her backyard with Mitchell and Logan. Being only a couple yards away from ours I could see that Tim had to retrieve the ball more than once as Logan tossed it into the field beyond the backyard. I jokingly asked Logan why he made his dad chase after the ball so much. But Tim never complained, and on such a warm day as well. Of all the times I have had the pleasure to be in your home I have seen God at work in your words and actions and even wise directions given to your sons. And the boys have learned well from you both.
God Bless you and yours~ May you be wrapped in God's Rainbow of Love.

Keep hot- rodding around in that car, you're daddy is so proud of you and wouldn't want that car to just sit and collect dust!

Love Lives On

Those we love remain with us
for love itself lives on,
and cherished memories never fade
because a loved one's gone.
Those we love can never be
more than a thought apart,
for as long as there is memory,
they'll live on in the heart.

Susie and family - I am a sister sales Director and girlfriend of Lisa Peine and I met you @ Career conference this year. We received the e-mail the day we arrived @ Seminar - What a shock to read about your precious soul mate and BEST friend, Tim's death. I am so sorry. Words cannot express the grief my heart feels for the loss of your beloved husband. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I will pray for you to receive God's blessings and strength during this most difficult time. I cannot imagine what you are going through but I do know that God can and will help you through this and comfort you and the boys for the rest of your life. Reading your journal entry the eve of Tim's passing was a true testiment to your faith. You are amazing, and I pray for that strength to continue thru these rough upcoming days!

I was bought here by Jim Berg and I don't even know you and I know you don't know me.
I was reading the whole story behind your husband's death. I know that there is a lot of pain going on in your family right now. I wanted to let you know that there is one more prayer warrior out there for you.
My brother's fiance died from the exact same sudden thing. It is so hard to know what to say when death strikes so tragically and unexpectedly.
I will pray for your healing and pray that you all are able to lean on each other and support each other as best you can. God's grace will help get you through each day.

Today's service was so beautiful. There were so many little things that showed how much you and the boys loved Tim with all your hearts and souls...from Mitchel and Joel doing the readings to Ethan wanting to touch Tim's head. I know that God will help your heart heal and that the love you shared with Tim will last a lifetime and live on through the boys. May God give you the strength to endure such a difficult time. You are such a remarkable lady and I am honored to know you. God Bless!!

Susie, Mitchell, Logan, Joel, and Ethan. We hold you very dear in our hearts today and in the days to follow. As I was doing my devotions this morning I came across this verse which speaks the truth about your family's faith. "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. Matthew 21:22." We who believe pray that God will bring you comfort and strength when your grief seems to burden you. May we pray for you, your extended family and all who are feeling your loss as a special celebration of Tim's life is celebrated today.
"Heavenly Father, you are the Lord of life and of death. According to your goodness, you give us life and you determine the number of our days. Please comfort those who are suffering because of the loss of a loved one. It hurts to say goodbye to someone we have loved in life.
Give us faith to trust your promise that Jesus has won the victory over death. Give us strength to bear up under the feelings of grief and loss. Give us words of comfort to speak at the proper time. Thank you Lord for the time of grace that you give to each one of us. Preserve us in faith and when our last hour comes graciously take us from this world of sorrow to yourself in heaven. Amen."
May God continue to shower his blessings upon you. In God we Trust.

Susie,
I was thinking of you and the boys tonight and just had to pass this idea onto you. Not sure if you've ever seen a jean/denim quilt. When Jerry Stockmo died, I took his jeans, cut them into 6x6 squares, made a pattern, and sewed them together (with some help of course, b/c I'm not a seamstress) and then made a quilt out of it, I gave the quilt to Heather as a keepsake. I did the same thing with Rita's jeans and her striped shirts and gave it to Todd as a keepsake for Christmas.
I was thinking this would be a nice keepsake for you and your boys to have in your home. You all could wrap yourselves up in a little bit of Tim at any momement. If you don't have a seamstress close by.....I'm sure we could find you one. Hope you don't mind me passing on the idea.
My prayers continue to be with your family.

Susan,
Becky, myself and our whole family want to extend our deepest sympathies for the loss of your husband Tim. Our prayers are focused to your needs as you go through this difficult time. Since moving from Goodhue we have not seen much of you guys and the St Luke family. Even with that time past, we feel deeply saddened. I can't imagine your greif, but we only pray for hope, strength, and love of God, family, and freinds to carry you and the boys through this time. You are such a wonderfull family, mother and father, and we have always been so impressed by your faith and strong relationship with God. God be with you and the boys, and we will surely be with you in thought and prayer. We were unable to be to the wake/funeral as work is in the day/evening hours this week, and we did not hear until late on the 23rd. Love to you and the boys.

Susie,
I'm so sorry I was unable to attend the visitation tonight and can not get off work for the service in the morning. I could help you compile the memories and if you'd like, add pictures and make a bound "digital scrapbook" to be printed so that if other members of your family would like a copy they can order one as well; (you can even have one made for each of the boys to have forever). Let me know and I'm happy to help you do that. Preservation of memories is soooo very important! What a gift to have had Tim as a husband and father and what a gift you and the boys were to him as well. You are right, God is so good. What an inspiration you are to all of us. I feel so very fortunate to know you. Please let me know if I can help you in any way.
Hugs and prayers to you and your entire family!!!

Susie & boys - As I sit here trying to think of what to say to a family that has had to endure so much, tears run down my face. I don't know you personally, but I know you. I know your awesome son, Bryce, through your words of sharing during your journey to heal him. I know your wonderful husband, Tim, father of your boys or as you refer to him the BEST of the BEST through your loving words of him. What an amazing man - dedicated to God and his family - one all men should model. Your faith and love in God will carry you through this difficult time. You are an amazing woman. My prayer for you and your family is that God continues to bless you with "moments" you feel Bryce and Tim with you. I know Bryce and Tim wouldn't have it any other way. Love and prayers from afar...

Psalm 16:8 I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken for He is right beside me. We are praying for you and your family for strength and comfort especially during these next few days.

Oh Susie! My heart is breaking with you and the boys. When Julie called I just could not believe what she was telling me. I was camping and felt so helpless. I am home and want so badly to see you, but I also know that some people just want to be with their family during this time. You are so overwhelmed with people right now, I know. I am dealing with all the same emotions as you are. It always comes back when someone dear to me is going through it. I can't even begin to explain it. I want you to know that I can't get my mind off you and the boys and I pray for your strength to get through the hard times. I hope and pray that we can get together soon, cuz I need to hug you! I know that you won't ask for help, but just tell me what you need!
With my thoughts, prayers and love!

I've been checking out your sight for many months now thru Isaac Hall's CB sight and was so shocked to hear of your husband's passing. I saw his obituary in the Bemidji Pioneer paper where I am from. I lost my mother 9 years ago from cancer and my only brother last year from a heart attack so I know the pain you are going thru. Just about every CB site talks about your wonderful family so it has to be good to know so many are praying for you. Here is another prayer for you from Bemidji.

You are in my thoughts and prayers daily. I often don't have the right words to say, so here are a few words from my devotional this morning. "The Holy Spirit is the One who is poured out upon you like a healing balm - to soothe, to calm, and to comfort. He is the One who renews your strength, revivies your spirit, refills your cup, restores your strength, and refreshes your spirit. The Holy Spirit is being poured out upon you today." Hugs to you, Susie, and to each of your precious boys.

My heart goes out to you and the boys, and rest of the family I haven't met. I believe that Bryce met Tim with a big leaping hug and they are comforting each other. Remember they both are always with you, and they will comfort you too. Whether it is a song on the radio or the way the wind blows through the window. They will let you know they are there, and put a smile on your face. Take care. Lots of hugs to you and the kids.

Praying for all the family and friends to be able to face the days ahead. All my prayers pour out to you. I trust that he will be with you during this time and will help you along the way. Tim is and will always be a wonderful man. What a blessing God gave you here on earth. He is really really going to be missed by so many people. I know that your faith in Christ Jesus will carry you through. It's reaching the world and all of us surrounding you are also truly blessed by your strength, courage, awesome love for your family, friends and your HUGE FAITH. What a friend we have in Jesus!!!! Just think, Tim's invitation into Heaven is the most wonderful precious and awesome party of his life and we all will join him someday in Gods eternal home. What a day that will be! "Please God lift them up and guide them each day forward." From a dear caring friend forever that can't stop thinking and worrying about you! :-)

Dear Susie.....My thoughts and prayers are filled with you and Mitchell, Logan, Joel and Ethan, and of course, Bryce and Tim. Sometimes people say things like "God must have wanted....." I will never believe that. I do not believe that God is up there saying things like Emma will live and Bryce will go to Heaven. For me, it isn't like that. Because this world isn't a perfect place, and because we are sinners, God's hands are tied. Life on Earth is hard and scary and unfair---it's random. God is watching us and holding us and lifting us up. He cannot make our lives on Earth perfect. That's what Heaven does. So we must go through life on Earth with faith (which you have so graciously taught and shared with so, so many!!) believing that we will all be together again where we can love each other and glorify God. When we get to Heaven, we will get the answers and life will be perfect. I send my love and I will repeat what someone posted earlier---"May you fall deeply into the arms of Jesus." That's such a beautiful image for me. Imagine yourself and the boys deep into Jesus' arms......that's where I am picturing you. I love you........angie

Dear Susie and family. I found your site through another CB site. I read you journal entries and your journey is all to familiar to me and my family. I too lost my husband in 2003 and my daughter died of Cancer August 24th 2007. I know your pain. I used to sit and think "how can all this happen to one person". I thought my story was one that never happened to other families. How can so much trajedy befall one family? Now I know it does happen and the only reason I come up with is, there is another plan for them. They are in a beautiful place together and that brings me some comfort. Everyday is a struggle to try and cope with what has happened. My only advice is take things day by day, thats all we can do. God never gives us more than we can handle. Unfortunately for us that is more than we ever imagined. I am so sorry for what you are going through. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

July 25 reading for Streams in the Desert...(Diana always gets on me about looking ahead but when it is a special day I believe that is what God wants me to do)
"You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand (John 13:7)
In this life, we have an incomplete view of God's dealings, seeing His plan only half finished and underdeveloped. Yet once we stand in the magnificent temple of eternity, we will have the proper perspective and will see everything fitting gracefully together.
I will make a copy of the whole reading for the day..it is incredible and such a gift from our Lord. I love you and I am so very sorry.

Do not personally know your family but still can only imagine the numbness you must feel right now. We shouldn't question "Why" but just remember that they are both in a better place. I know that they are smiling down at you and trying to comfort you in their own way. Hope you can feel their presence. Sincerely, Noranne-a fellow Mary Kay family member from California

Susie & Family -- I saw Tim's name in the paper and I thought, Oh No!!! Not this family! I followed your Bryce's story before! I am so sorry for the loss of you husband! God and Bryce must have decided that he was needed more in heaven! You and your sons will be in my prayers! I believe that your "Boys" are watching over you and your sons!!!!!!

Hey there,
Thinking of you lots today. A friend of mine sent me these verses and I thought you might like to hear them.
From Job:
God's voice thunders in marvelous ways;
he does great things beyond our understanding.



Psalm:
34 Give me understanding, and I will keep your law
and obey it with all my heart.
35 Direct me in the path of your commands,
for there I find delight.

Psalm:
5 Great is our Lord and mighty in power;
his understanding has no limit.

Another one from psalm:
1 My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,
2 turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding,
3 and if you call out for insight
and cry aloud for understanding,
4 and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure,
5 then you will understand the fear of the LORD
and find the knowledge of God.
6 For the LORD gives wisdom,
and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
7 He holds victory in store for the upright,
he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,
8 for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones.
9 Then you will understand what is right and just
and fair—every good path.
10 For wisdom will enter your heart,
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
11 Discretion will protect you,
and understanding will guard you.

Love you all so much....

Dear Lord,
We gather together and lift up the Breuer family to You in prayer. Lord, we don't understand. We don't understand why this happened but we come before You in prayer and faith.

We pray that You will hold this family in Your loving arms and keep them close to You. We pray that You will let them feel Your tears mingling with theirs and reassure them that You are with them and always will be. Please fill them with Your comfort and peace, Your strength and support. Please provide the resources they need and help them through the days ahead. Please fill their hearts with loving, laughing memories of their loved ones. Please, Lord, be with them. Oh, God of all comfort, we pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

Susie and boys,
I am so sorry for your loss. Unbelievable. I remember seeing you and Tim at Dos Amigos in Rochester on a "date night" while you guys were taking a break from the hospital. Bryce was about 75 days post-transplant. You guys looked so happy together, and I remember thinking that more parents need to take "breaks" like that to stay strong and support eachother. Treasure those memories. Lean on family and friends for support. Put your trust in the Lord and His plan for us all. Just wanted to send you a note to tell you that we are praying for you all.

Dear Susie,
What could I say now to ease your pain? If I could take it from you I truly would, my beautiful friend. I Praise God that you have Him to fall on. Please hang in there and hold fast. I truly believe that our time here is just the blink of an eye compared to the redemption, rejoicing and healing of eternity. Revelation 21:3 says "Behold the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and will be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away."
It will be difficult and heartbreaking until you are together again, but know that you are surrounded by so many who love and care for you all and are diligently praying for you. You continue to touch and change lives with your strength as a family, and now again as God leads you through this valley. He will not forsake you, press on. So much love,

Susie and boys...I had not heard the sad, heart breaking news, just decided to read Brycer's journal and couldn't comprehend what I was reading.
My Tim story is a story of Tim and Susie shopping in a clothing store in New Orleans (Mary Kay)...there is Susie trying on skirts and Tim standing quietly nodding his head, saying yes, that's a nice one and Susie kept on finding more items. He was a gentleman. He was happy just to be near you Susie! (even in a women's clothing store!!!)
May you fall deep into the arms of Jesus and find strength in Him. May you hear the whispers of how deeply he loves you and cares for you and your boys. I am praying for you...

Susie and family. You are for sure in our prayers and in our thoughts. It's hard to understand why people are taken from us, but find comfort in knowing you all were a special part of a well-lived life. When the Lord calls our loved ones home, he leaves a gift of memories in exchange, Memories of love and friendship. These memories are treasures to carry with you always. Have hope in tomorrow, have faith in the everlasting, and take comfort in the love of family and friends.You will get through this, you have what God has given you for comfort and promises. Susie you are an inspiration to many, may God continue to guide and preserve that part of you as you begin yet another new journey. "New Beginnings" aren't easy when love is swept away from us. God Bless you and the Boys. In God we Trust.

Your inspiring words are making everyone stronger and I hope and pray they are doing the same thing for you. You and your boys have been a constant in my mind since Saturday. I hope you're all feeling my prayers and hugs being sent your way.

Memory of Tim: I know my husband enjoyed talking "farm" with Tim. We had talked about the bridge to Wisconsin closing in Winona and how it didn't affect Tim's crop hauling.

We only met you guys that one time, but it left a huge impression on us. You've had many offers of help and support, but please know we will do what we can to help you out as well. All you need to do is ask.

Many prayers coming your way!

Susie-
Sometimes I do not understand the reason for things and my frustration reaches an "all time high". Well, I reached that after I heard the news of Tim. I had a "come-to-God-workout" with a lot of sweat, tears, and anguish. I still do not understand, but I did cuddle my husband (I showered first) when I got home. I took a picture in my mind. I watched my kids argue and smiled, again taking that mental picture. I think about the "what-if" everyday, just as I did after Bryce died. I am sorry for the anguish your family feels. What I am trying to say, is the past few days I have been thanking God for things that usually irritate me. I pray God wraps his arms around your family and I pray that I won't take anything for granted again, even the irritating things:)

Cherish the memories. Your family continues to be part of our prayers. God bless you.

Dearest Susie, boys, and all of the Breuer family.....

Your entry was beyond beautiful!! I have always found myself awe struck at how strong your faith is. I strive for that, but have found myself questioning so many things these past few days. There truly is no one stronger than you to guide your boys through this.

I can remember the days that followed when Matt lost his brother Pat. Such extreme sadness felt by all, but then there would be a funny story or a memory that would make everyone laugh for a little while. It felt so good to have some happy tears mixed in with all of the sad ones.

Each and everyone one of us following your journey has only great memories of Tim. I can remember when we were at your house for a bonfire and Matt and Tim were standing side by side...same height, same size, same build. I had mistaken Tim for Matt and slide my arm around his waist as I ask him if I could get him anything when I went inside. Tim and I both laughed for a moment only to find Matt laughing even harder.

We are thinking of you constantly. Matt and I have made extra time in our day to just be together and to thank God that we have each other.

Love,
Tammy, Matt, & kids x 6

Dear Suzie and boys, In my GRATITUDE Journal this morning I journaled about how greatful I am that Jeff and I met Tim and Suzie Breuer at that party at Leadership Conference, several years ago. What an INCREDIBLE GIFT the two of you have been to us. We are so greatful for your friendship. How blessed we are to have known someone who is so hard to say goodbye to. We love you Suzie Breuer with all our heart and we wish we could take this cross from you...but we will be here to help you carry it. May you feel GODS LOVE SURROUND you and the boys today and in the difficult days ahead. HE will lift you up and give you the strength you need. God gives us 365 days in a year but we are to live them...one MOMENT AT A TIME! Love and Hugs, Jeff and Janet Chapman

Dear Susie,
I can not even begin to express in words how much I wish you weren't going through this. I just don't understand why this is happening to you and your boys. You and Tim were so in love; each other's rock to lean on during the tough times. I know he is in heaven with Bryce, finally giving his little man a huge hug that he's been longing to give his Brycer. May God give you the strength to get through this very difficult time and to help your boys heal their hearts. Love will see you through this. Your love for Tim, the love the boys have for their Dad,and the love of so many people who love and care for you will help you one day at a time. I wish that I could say or do more, but I am at a loss. Just know that you are an amazing person with such a loving and caring heart. Your words are inspriational in your entries. I hope your heart heals a little at a time. Your time with Tim will be forever emblazed in your memories and one day, you will be able to give both Tim and Bryce a big hug at heaven's gates. God Bless you all.

Dear Susie,

I wish we lived closer to each other, because I want so badly to be there for you. Even though we've never met, we've gotten to know each other through the death of our children. We are connected and bonded in that respect and my heart is breaking for you. You've been through more than anyone should ever be expected to endure. This time I can't say I know how you feel, because I don't. Even though I lost my daughter, I haven't lost my husband and I can't imagine going through that when I'm still hurting so badly from Brenna's death. I've cried for you and prayed for you, and I'll continue to do so. You and your boys are incredible and you have so many people that love you. Again, I'm sending many hugs your way. Take care and God bless.

Love and prayers,
Julie

As I rocked Gavin to sleep tonight the tears kept rolling down my cheeks thinking about you and the boys. It seems as if it were yesterday when I was over for the foot spa party at your house being pampered by the adorable little "Mary Kay Assistants." After the party, we were talking about babies and nursing. You were giving me advice on what to expect. I distinctly remember you telling me to not give up and if I needed someone to talk to, I could call you -even in the middle of the night. I hope that in the next few days, weeks, months and years when you need someone to talk to or help out, you pick the phone. I can not begin to comprehend why God would do this to your family. But I know he has surrounded you with countless people who love you and the boys so very much and want to help you get through this difficult time. Our thoughts, prayers and love to you and your family. Sincerely, Jeremy, Katie, Dylan and Gavin

Susie...Can't stop thinking about you and the boys since Nyla called me this morning. I have been praying for all of you throughout the day. Lots of tears and feelings of "what can I do?". Then this song played in my mind from casting crowns...

Just love them like Jesus, carry them to Him
His yoke is easy, His burden is light
You don't need the answers to all of life's questions
Just know that He loves them and stay by their side
Love them like Jesus

I really don't like this one bit for you Susie, and for your boys. All that I have to give you is my ears to listen and my heart to pray for you. I also know now that Tim will see and hear every time you say something "funny". I know you will understand that last statement. I love you so much and God is so Awesome.

I am truely touched by you, and your family. You are an example of how all of us should be and should strive to be. You are right life is to short and to precious, so many of us take things forgranted. Thank you for writing in your update and remindig us to please love each other, forgive each other and respect each other. Bless one another and do God's word.

So thank you for reminding us all on how as Christians we should be. You are truely an inspiration to me, along with your wonderful boys. You are right give God all the glory!!

May Your grace, mercy and healing be poured out abundantly upon them, today and forever.

Susie and Family,
As the girls and I rode in the van tonight, "Legacy" came on the radio. I know you have always said that's one of Bryce's songs, but the moment it came on, I only thought of Tim and the legacy he has left in this world...A loving father to five incredible boys, a strong and steadfast husband to a wonderful (and equally strong) woman, a hard working family man, a faith-filled Christian, a loving son/brother...So many wonderful characteristics (too many to list) and legacies that will continue to live on within your family. As devastated as we continue to be for you all, we rejoice that Tim's legacies are what they are. All of our love and prayers to you now and always...

He knew how wonderful and thoughtful and amazing and sweet and loving and just how very selfless you are. He already knew every wonderful thing there is to know about you, and he loved you for the amazing woman you are.
You inspire me to be a better person, and your boys are so very blessed and lucky to have a mom with all these qualities and so many more. I love you so very deeply, and your boys are amazing little men~just like their daddy. You are a true servent of God.
Hugs, kisses and lots of prayers to you and your boys.

Dear Fanily, for we are all God's family. Tanya and Bob Smith are dear friends of ours and we learned of your unbearable loss thru them. Our second son has Cystic Fibrosis and has stood at deaths doors many times throughout his life. He just turned 38 but when he was diagonised at age two he wasn't to live to see seven. What I am trying to get at is this, many times I said "Why" to God and there is no answer just loving, trusting faith. I read a book years ago called "When Bad Things Happen to Good People", the one part that stuck in my mind was this, "Life is like a patchwork quilt, while on earth we only see the back raw edges and no rhyme or reason. When we get to heaven we shall see the quilt and how all the pieces fit together and the beautiful pattern it makes." This has brought much peace to me and I hope it will help you through. Know that we will hold you close to our hearts and lift you up in prayer.
Many, many tight hugs to you all,

There will be a day when the Lord will explain all the "Why's" that you have for him. Our Planet is not an easy place to live and YOU definitely have recieved your own angel wings.

Like so many others, my heart aches for your family. I am sooo sorry!! In all the years we've been friends, I've never heard you say anything but praises for Tim as a husband and dad! I know he was your rock, and you and the boys must feel lost without him. I wish I could just come and scoop away the hurt and give you back Tim and Bryce... make this nightmare go away! I loved your journal entry about not losing faith because this too you will find out when you enter the gates. I pray that you can pour out your hurt, heartache, and dismay to the Saviour so that He can fill you up His Grace and Love. Please know I am here for you in any way that you need me!! Love you all, LeeAnn

Susie, Mitchell, Logan, Joel, Ethan, Arnie, Linda, Shell, Amanda, Breuer Family, Kempner Family, extended family & friends, we are praying for Strength & Comfort from our Lord above for all of you. My heart is terribly heavy and saddened by your sudden loss of an EXCELLENT Husband, Father, Son, Relative and Friend. I am so sorry you all have to endure this pain and suffering. I am praying God will hold all your hands and guide you each minute of the day ahead.

We feel so fortunate to have spent the fourth of July with all of you and especially Tim. Pat said he feels so blessed that he had the chance to hang out with Tim during the parade and after. Although I was wondering during the parade if poor Tim was seeing any of the parade because Pat kept on talking Tim's ear off. Or Sus, was that Tim? ;-) Pat sends you all his prayers Susie and wants you to know that we are here for you always and anytime of the day or night.

I feel so at a loss for words and feel so helpless, please forgive me. Just want you to know how very much we love and pray for you. I remember hearing the Backstrom Brothers mom say when we were at the concert together Sus, that she lives each day because she is one day closer to her sons. Try to find some comfort knowing you too are one day closer to Bryce & and now Tim and hold on tightly.

As I was picking up your apples, God guided me to this bible verse. I wanted to share it with you.

Isaiah 41: 9-10
9 I took you from the ends of the earth, from it’s farthest corners I called you. I said, “You are my servant”; I have chosen you and have not rejected you.
10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

My heart is so heavy for all of you. know I am here for you, esp in prayer.

Susie,
I cannot even find the words to tell you how very sad I am... On Saturday, I had been working on a card for you and Tim when I heard the news. I hope it's okay that I sent it out anyway, because I wanted you to know how much we love you both and truly looked up to you.
I pray that God will make sense of this to all of us, because my very human mind cannot fathom it. I am so sorry, Susie... Tim was a wonderful man, one whom we cannot imagine not being here. I know your faith is strong, and God will hold your family in His arms, but my heart breaks for you nonetheless. Your family will be in our prayers, dear sister.

Our deepest sympathies to you and your boys. Walking past that John Deere Tractor (we pass daily)... seeing it last evening brought different thoughts than usual. Instead of thinking of your sweet Bryce, I imagined the wonderful reunion Bryce and his daddy had on Saturday. You are all in our thoughts & will remain in our prayers.

Dear Breuer Family,
Melanie's mom Amber has asked for prayers for your family. I am speechless and can't find the right words or anything that comes even close to comforting you in this incredibly tragic time. I pray that God will bless you with strength and surround you with comfort as you lean on Him to carry you through this long road ahead. I pray that your precious boys will rest easy in the shelter of the Lord's arms and that they too will be surrounded with love. I can't and won't ever understand what you are going through and why God took your sweet child and husband far too soon, but I hope you feel the prayers of so many people lifting you up. God Bless!
In His Grip, Carrie

My heart aches for you, I can only imagine the pain you and your boys are feeling. However, your faith is absolutely astounding and will once again carry you through. Remember, God will never give you more than you can handle. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

I don't even know what to say. I am so shocked! I cried when I read your site this morning! Sometimes I ask God, "I know you only give me what I can handle, but how much more can I handle?" I can not imagine the questions that go through your mind and you continue to stay strong. I am so proud of you and everything that you stand for. Keep the faith, stay strong, but don't be afraid to fall. You need all the support you can get right now and from the website, it looks like you have a ton of it. I am very thankful for that. I want you to know that we are thinking about you and your family. If you ever need anything at all, we are here for you! Hang in there Honey!

Susie and boys:
I have followed Bryce's site for about 2 years,also. I think of and pray for your family often. Periodically I log on to see if there's an update. When I logged on just now and saw all the "new" photos and noticed so many were of your husband, my first thought was, "Oh, I wonder if it's his birthday and Susie has a tribute to his love and devotion below." I looked at the photos and scrolled to the bottom for your post. Never in a zillion years could I have imagined what that post would hold. My mouth fell open and my body went numb.My heart goes out to you and your boys at your incredible loss. I CAN imagine the joy at the reunion of Bryce and his Dad, but can't even imagine the shock and pain you feel earthbound. As usual though, even in life's darkest moment,your faith remains TOTALLY in the Lord without wavering. You continue to amaze me, change me and impact my life. And to think I've never met you,accept on Bryce's site.You are everything a true Chrisian is suppose to be. I lift you all up to the Lord and will every day hereafter....may strength,courage,HOPE and comfort be yours.
In Christian love,Sherry

i am so sorry. my heart is breaking for you. your family is such an inspiration to so many. we have only met a handful of times, but your kindess and your gentle loving spirit is so strong. christ's love is so evident in your lives. my stomach is still churning at the thought of what you are going through now. so many questions and so many things we do not understand. we know in Whom we put our faith and trust and hold onto that. i cannot even imagine the grief of losing tim so soon after bryce. we know they are together in the presence of God, but the pain of missing them must be overwhelming. please let me know if there is anything you need/anything we can do. let us know if you are up for phone calls or whatever you need. we love you and your family, and our prayers are with you in abundance.

God's comfort,peace and love to you all~ My heart aches for you and my prayers will always be with you. Looking at your last Christmas letter which says "We have learned to live each day with God's guidance while placing all of our complete trust, faith, hope and love in Him. God never said life would be easy. He did say He would be with us throughout the entire journey. And, He is...Yes, our lives have evolved into a life that we never would have asked for--losing our son. But, we would never exchange the tremendous spiritual growth that is only found in HIM...By God's grace, we will get through this and be reunited with our son, and brother(and now also husband and father), when our purpose on earth is complete. And as always, God will get all the glory."

Dearest Susie, Mitchell, Logan, Joel and Ethan~

We were so stunned when we read about Tim's death on Bryce's website. I called yesterday and spoke with your sister Julie. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Please let us know if there is any way we can be of help or support for you.

Tim was such a loving, awesome Dad and husband. It seems like just yesterday that we were splashing around in the pool at Owatonna with you, Tim and the boys.

You have so many people praying for you. Your faith has remained so strong throughout all of life's trials. Satan is trying once again to turn you away from God, but he will not succeed!! I don't understand why this had to happen but we need to trust that God has a plan....I just don't know what that might be yet. May God wrap all of you in his loving arms and hold you while you grieve.

Sending love and hugs your way,

I have been following Bryce's CB site since 2006, when I first learned about your sweet, little boy and his brave fight with cancer... I followed your updates religiously and I cried with you 17 months ago when I read about Bryce's passing. Now today, I am beside my self again thinking of of what you are going through, what your boys are feeling and how someone so strong and full of faith has to endure yet another unimaginable loss! Words cannot describe... so please just know that many have and will continue to be said for your family. This kind of loss brings so much pain, God will bring you comfort. With deepest sympathy,

Dear Susie & Family:

I have been thinking about you constantly since receiving the phone early yesterday morning. You have a huge community of people grieving and praying for all of you.

Although I didn't know Tim very well, I will always remember his patience and tenderness in caring for Bryce and the tremendous love he had for his family. I also remember his beautiful smile...

I still cannot comprehend that Tim is gone or why God had this in his plan for your family. I know that your faith is so strong Susie and it will help to sustain you.

Please know that we are always here for you to help in whatever way we can.

We love all of you.

Susie and boys, we are so saddened at the news of Tim's untimely death. We have always been told, and I know that you have said it several times, that God never gives you anything you can't handle. You are perhaps one of the strongest people I have ever met and I know you will persevere, as will the boys. There are so many people that have such fond memories of Tim. It is just so hard to imagine that he is gone. He and Bryce are smiling down at your family from Above and cheering for you because they know you are so strong and will take great care of your family! We are praying for you and Tim's family constantly!

Oh Susie. I have no words. My heart is absolutely aching for you and your boys. There is just no way to understand the reason for all of this. I grieve for you and just continue to lift you up to our Heavenly Father. You've been through more than any woman should be expected to - but only He knows why. I will pray for you daily. You are so treasured.

Dear Susie and boys...
I am so very sorry for your unexpected and shocking loss. My heart is just breaking for you and your family. The example of yours and Tim's never-ending faith has taught so many of us who have followed your journey through these years to never falter in our own belief and rejoice those that have had the joy of being welcomed home into God's Kingdom. That picture of Bryce meeting Tim and welcoming him into pure Joy is what I am leaning on and giving me strength to send to you through my prayers. You are in my thoughts and my prayers...

Sweet Susie,

I don't even know what to say...I am so very sorry for your loss. I can't believe you have to go through this. The loss of Bryce was too much, and now this. I asked my husband how much a person is expected to handle, it's all just so hard to understand. You've always had such a strong faith in God and I know that's what has helped you deal with Bryce's passing, just as I know my faith has gotten me through Brenna's passing. I know you'll continue to lean on God for strength, and please also lean on all of us out here that love you guys. I can just picture the reunion Bryce and Tim had...the joy they must feel! I'm sending so many hugs your way, along with all the love and prayers in my heart. I pray for your peace and strength to deal with the loss of your soul mate. I pray for your boys' peace and strength to deal with the loss of their beloved father.

Love and prayers,
Julie

Susie,
I am at a loss for words...I am shocked! God has a plan and only he knows what it is. Dani is no longer taking care of Brycer, Tim has taken her place and together they are rejoicing in Heaven. One day we will all get answers as to why they were all taken so early. He must have wanted some "great angels"!! Please know your family has always been in our thoughts and prayers and will continue to be!

Thinking of you,

Susie,
it seems impossible to believe that you and your boys are being asked to endure this unbelievable pain and sorrow. I just keep thinking about the strength and faith that Tim and you have had over the years and I know that a great source of that strength for you was knowing that you had your partner to lean on and understand the pain that only parents that have lost their child can understand. This seems so unfair that you have to put all of this on your shoulders. Please know that Tim was a wonderful man and terrific father and I am so sorry for the loss that you and your boys have had.

We just want to say how much we love and admire your beautiful family. We spent the morning singing and praying you & the boys. I can't imagine the pain of this loss, words cannot describe it I'm sure. But, we want you all to know we are there for you and willing to do anything to help (maybe a baseball game with Joel, or camping, fishing, etc.). William was soo exicted two weeks ago to hear that you were coming to visit that he said, "Sit on Tim's lap. Cuddle with Uncle Tim," (which is not his normal request). We love you all and are grieving with you now. See you soon. John, Amanda & William Hardy

My dear sweet baby sister Susie......
I was looking around for a piece of tablet paper to write down some flight times for our brothers to come and be with you...I wandered over to Tim's desk and found a piece of paper. As I was just about to write on it, I thought, "Wait,...what if this is something really important!"....I laid it back down and found a corner piece of a magazine and wrote on that....later, about an hour later, something kept pulling at me to go see what that tablet paper was about,...so I followed my heart and this is what I found:
3-6-08
What my Dad means to me...My Dad's name is Tim. I like to farm with him. I like to go fishing with him. I wish we could go to an Angels game and Twins game! We will have Mom pay for the tickets.
Joel
You two have made the most beautiful, sweet children
Thank~you for marrying Tim Breuer....HE IS THE BEST!!!!!

We will continue to hold Tim, Bryce, you and the boys in our constant thoughts and prayers. Tim and Bryce have now been united in His Kingdom. They will constantly look down upon each of you and give you the strength, love and courage you will need to make it through each day.

Hi Susie and family,
I continue to be inspired by your family every time I look at your website, and it is often that I do. Thank you too for sharing about others in their journey. You have a real mission and I pray God's blessings on your entire family as you go forward in your journey. As I scroll down I see our little Rian's name, and I am encouraged that others see those names and pray for them as well. Rian is a precious little 4 year old granddaughter now with continued health issues due to her epilepsy. Despite not being very verbal, she is a real worshipper, and loves to praise Jesus. Thank you all!

I was just looking at the picture of Bryce in the bathtub on the opening page...I've seen it many times as I check on you often, but, it makes me smile everytime, and it really struck me tonight just how much he looks like you in that picture...so genuinely full of joy and happiness!

Hope all is going well, and we look forward to seeing you at Camp Jornada in a few weeks!

Hello to the Breuer family and Happy 4th of July!!

I am working the holiday and the whole weekend. Matt decided to skip the Wanamingo parade but went to the fireworks with the 4 younger ones. We all thought of you and your family on Friday as we share the good memories of watching the fireworks with you guys 2 years ago. Remember the kids playing spoons?!? Bryce was going for the win that night as he had a great hand of cards!! Hard to believe that was already 2 years ago!!

I hope that your family is enjoying the summer and enjoying the great weather that we are having.

Thinking of you......
The Kennedy family

Tim, Susie & Boys - We had such a huge "Bryce Moment" last night you will not believe it. Waseca County is gearing up for their Relay for Life that will be the first weekend in August. Last night we were to"Paint the Town Purple" for cancer awareness. Our 4-H club met at the Floral Shop in town to get our ribbons and to do a balloon release. Dorine - the owner of the shop - had purple balloons ready for everyone to let go - Just so happened that there was "1 JD Green" balloon floating around the shop - Ethan decided that he wanted to let a green one go instead of the purple. We all stood out in front of the shop, had the mayor sign the proclamation for Painting the Town Purple and had our picture taken for the newspaper. When we were done - We all let our balloons go. - The green one headed off well before the others and it seemed to be going a lot higher. As the wind took the balloons - Ethan turned to me and said, "Mom, my green balloon is going up to Bryce." You don't think that brought tears to my eyes as it still does now. I know that Bryce was with us. Sending huge hugs and prayers your way - today as always.

Hi, Susie, I don't sign the GB much but think of you guys often as Carter was called Home just three days after Bryce. I remember the farm set Bryce picked out to give to Carter for Christmas when we were in the hospital. I will keep it forever. It's like having Bryce and Carter right here with me. Thank you so much. I have a nephew that lives in Goodhue so if I ever get there to visit him, I would love to visit you and your family. You guys are such an inspiration; thanks again.

love carter's grandma gayle

Susie, it was so wonderful to hear your voice when we talked recently. You are a comfort to me and so many others.

I continue to think about the Bible verse you shared me with recently and thank you for that.

It has been such a good week for my precious boy and our family...My Mom flies in this afternoon and then Will, Katherine, my Mom and I head to NYC on Monday.

Bryce, you and your family remain in our hearts and prayers. We love you all.

Thanks for the motivation (& reminder) to donate blood! Just by chance, there was a bloodmobile at the neighborhood elementary school...I think it was meant to be. I was happy to stop and donate to celebrate Bryce's birthday!

Good morning! We hopped into the van to go to church yesterday morning, and BRAVE came right on the radio! Liv said, "That is Bryce's Song mama!" (I keep remembering how her and Bryce played at that wrestling match, and how much that meant to her!) I told her she was exactly right, and then it popped into my head that it was his birthday yesterday as well. We thought that was a pretty neat reminder to us! Our thoughts and prayers went out to you all yesterday, as they do each and every day!
With love, The Veiseths

Hi Susie
Just a quick note to let you know we are thinking of you today on Bryce's 10th birthday!!
I think of Bryce every Monday when I am volunteering at Children's Hospital in Mpls. I always go to the cancer floor first just for Bryce!! Bryce was so lucky to have all of you with him when he was in the hospital, there are so many children who don't have family with them or visitors!!! I challenge all of you to volunteer some where to make a difference in the life of a child!!!
Have a great week!!
With love and prayers!!!Tammy

Here is the Angel Penny version I have. I find alot of pennies at the car wash and they seem to appear when I need them the most! God Bless all of you!

I found a penny today,
Just lying on the ground,
But it's not just a penny
This little coin I've found.
Found pennies came from heaven
That's what my Grandpa told me,
He said Angels toss them down
Oh, how I loved that story.
He said when an Angel missed you
They toss a penny down,
Sometimes just to cheer you up
To make a smile out of your frown
So don't pass by that penny
When you're feeling blue,
It may be a penny from heaven
That an Angel's tossed to you

Happy birthday Bryce.

Mamie will probably have all the archangels up all night blowing up balloons for your party. She may even get her Grandma to bake the cake.

I'm sure you and she have found out how much you have in common. She will be ten years old next month, and people give blood in her memory, too. We have a blood drive at church the Saturday nearest the day she went to live in Heaven.

We'll be watching the sky tomorrow night for your candles.

you never cease to amaze me. your journal enteries always touch my heart so deeply and i am often in tears after reading them. your idea of talking with child life, etc., at the hospital is such a great idea; and you are the perfect person for this! i will keep that specifically in my prayers. you are so kind to mention melanie and our family in your journal. thank you. i love to hear your stories of bryce visiting you and believe those are true gifts from God. you are in my thoughts today on mother's day and will be a week from today as well on bryce's birthday. you are such an amazing mother. i don't know how you do it, raise five boys. you are a remarkable woman; and your story, your faith, your unconditional love has touched so many lives. thank you for continuing to share your life with us through caringbridge. i am always blessed and inspired by your enteries.

happy mother's day to you! God bless!

Susie,
I'm sorry it's been so long since I've written. Life has been so busy lately! I'm always thinking about you, Bryce and your family and praying you're doing okay. I know the rollercoaster is extremely hard and it's impossible to know what each day will bring. I'm glad you got so many signs from Bryce while you were in Hawaii. It's our dream to go back there one day...that was the last vacation we took with Brenna (it was her Make-A-Wish vacation). One day we'll go back and it will be bittersweet. Take care and God bless and I'll continue to keep you in my prayers.

Love and hugs,
Julie

Dearest Breu Crew~

I have to admit that even though we think of you often, I have not taken the time to check Bryce's site lately for updates. Well....your Brycer evidently thought it was time for me to check in with you as this past week I had three Bryce signs. On Tuesday afternoon I took Rachel to the doctor to have her thyroid levels checked and while we were waiting to be called back another patient's name was called and this little boy had two siblings with him and his Mom called to the younger brother "Come on Bryce, its our turn." I immediately thought of your Brycer and your entire family and wondered how you were all doing. Then yesterday and today (two days in a row!) I heard the song "Praise You in This Storm" by Casting Crowns on the radio. Now I have not heard this song on my KJCY radio station in a very loooong time so to hear it two days in a row had to be a message from Bryce. I was sitting at my desk doing bookwork this afternoon when I heard the song the second time and I just smiled and said to Bryce "Okay, you've made your point, I will check in with your Mom, Dad and brothers and let them know that you said Hi!"

Our prayers continue to be with all of you as you continue to experience a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I'm so glad that you had the opportunity to go to Hawaii and spend some quality time together as a family and with extended family. What a cool thing to run into Tom and Nyla! God's timing is so perfect!

We continue to praise God for Rachel's good health and holdfast to his promise that He will never forsake us when we are going through tough times with Rachel. We know just how blessed we are to still have Rachel with us so we will do whatever we have to do to keep her going in the right direction and continue on with God's help.

I just love your journal entries...you have such a gift to be able to put your thoughts about faith and God into words that flow so smoothly. You have reached out to so many people (including our family)...Bryce is so proud that you are continuing his legacy of faith and love.

God Bless,

Hi susie i found this for you its called
DON'T QUIT

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road your trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and its turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When they might have won, had they stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victors cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when your hardest hit,
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit!

I am the Spirit of April.
Did you not hear me come?
Violets nod in the meadow;
See, I have brought you some.
I opened your gate so gently,
Fearing to make you start;
I bring you a note of gladness
Out of the song in my heart.

Happy Birthday Susie!
On the way to work this morning, a very sweet Bryce sign ~ I couldn't wait to get to work to tell you about it! My husband and I were driving to work together when we both spotted a large bird flying above the homes in our development. We have never noticed an eagle that far from the river, but as it flew closer we knew just what it was. At the very same moment we realized it was a huge bald eagle, Mercyme's I Can Only Imagine started playing on the radio. The coolest thing was, this eagle glided very slowly just above and to the side of our car - so close!!! And not just for a little bit...we literally drove about a 1/2 mile with it doing this! It gave both of us shivers and tears in our eyes.. Of course we instantly thought of Bryce, our biggest hero. If only Aaron would have been along ~ I can't wait to tell him about it. It was as if that eagle was making a statement... I felt it was the birthday greeting sent by your sweet boy! So, we hope you have a fantastic birthday today and many signs come your way. Still loving your son from Moorhead... =O)

To the Breu Crew,
As we have traveled a journey similar to yours I wanted to let you know that Bryce has become such a huge part of Ryan's healing. We talk frequently about the pain and suffering that Bryce endured during his treatments. In some of Ryan's darkest hours he often reminded us that if Bryce could do it at his young age, then he could get through all the pain too. Ryan is so grateful to be alive and that God has given him the gift of life. We are grateful that God is not finished with Ryan on earth nor is he finished with Bryce as one of God's very special angels. We think of you daily and thank God for all of our blessings.

Hi, Susie. I am sitting in front of the fireplace right now wondering if we are really going to get a bunch of snow tomorrow...and what Bryce thinks of that. I also wonder if he already knows how much snow we will get. Hmmm.......I think he knows....or at least it would be something he could find out if he wanted to. I can see him in Heaven smiling and shaking his head, saying, "Hey, brothers, you better keep those boots and snow pants out and ready! You're going to need them!" And.....even though Heaven is where Bryce is.....and that's better than ANY place, ANYTIME....my human self can't help but wish for him to be with you and Tim and his brothers. One day you will all be together. My prayers for you and your family is that the Easter promise is filling up your heart and mind and soul.

Susie, Tim, Mitchell, Logan, Joel and Ethan,
I'm so glad you had a great vacation, and I am still FREAKED OUT that we ended up on the same flight back from LAX. What are the odds! I had forgotten you were in Hawaii until we saw you at the airport. I really enjoyed seeing all of you so happy... and so tan! Susie, I always come away from our talks feeling so fortified and ready for anything. The timing was perfect because the week got wild. Let's talk again soon. We're going to Florida in April. Will I see you there, too? Hope so! ;)

THIS DAY'S GREATEST GIFTS
We can't change the past…
But we can gather up
It's lessons and move on,
Stronger and wiser.
We can't control the future…
But we can send our dreams
Ahead of us
To help prepare the way.
We can live each moment…
Heart and soul,
And cherish this day's
Greatest gift…
The gift of now.
May peace with the past
And faith in the future,
Gently guide you through each
Precious moment of Today.
I pray you have a Blessed Easter

Hi Breuers - I have never signed the guest book because I've never really known what to say, but I do want to share a really cool story from yesterday.
I was out on a walk with the kids and Stacy Thuman & Tanner, we were walking by the school (it was about 11:30) and noticing all the kids outside at recess. We were then walking down 5th Avenue, and we noticed a bird in the distance soaring over the townhomes. As it got closer we realized it was a bald eagle, a real small one, but it was close enough for us to see the bald head. Stacy and I looked at each other and said it reminded us of Bryce. He was flying over & actually swooped down over his great grandmas house, and then off to school to check out what was going on. I just thought it was too cool not to pass on.
He will always be remembered! What a special boy...

Breuer Family..
Just had to share this Bryce moment with you!! As Katie Bee and I were out on a walk Wednesday late morning; we saw the most amazing thing; we were on the back street in front of the townhomes and noticed at the same time that an eagle was flying towards us; this beautiful eagle had just come from a low sweep over Grandma Marcy's home and was headed straight for the playground at school where all of the kids were out playing after lunch!
Thinking of you and your amazing "Brycer" often!
God Bless

PRAYER WARRIOR INVITATION:

On Wednesday, March 19, 2008, between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. EDT, please join Angel Wings Remembers and Angel_Wings Prayer Warriors in prayer for all of the CaringBridge families and families with other personal websites.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Memories Keep Those We Love
Close To Us Forever

Although words seem to say so little,
I hope they help in some small way
to ease the sense of loss
that you’re experiencing today.

Hold fast to your memories
to all of the cherished moments
of the past,
to the blessings and the laughter,
the joys and the celebrations,
the sorrow and the tears.

They all add up to a treasure
of fond yesterdays
that you shared and spent together,
and they keep the one you loved
close to you in spirit and thought.

The special moments
and memories of your life
will never change.
They will always be in your heart
today and forever more.

Hi, Susie. It's me again. I had a Breuer dream last night. You all came over to our house.....For some reason, Mitchell ran in and sat by me (Allie was disappointed), and I asked where Bryce was going to sit. Mitchell and I made room for Bryce inbetween us. We couldn't see Bryce, but we all knew he was there. Then the kids went outside to play in all the new snow, but your kids didn't have any snow clothes.....apparently, we didn't mind! :) Ethan was an adorable little silly man.....too funny and laughing and giggling....that's about all I remember......it was a very nice dream......everyone was happy and Bryce was there. I send my love....always.......angie

Hello Breuer’s,

I just wanted to stop by and let you know I sent prayers and a message to Ryan and his family. I am sure Bryce is sitting next to Ryan holding his hand and giving them all strength and blessings. That is just the thing Bryce would want to do. He learned it all from you, his whole family! Your strength and Faith is an inspiration to so many. I am so glad we had a chance to visit again and I look forward to that fishing trip this summer.

Blessed Be

Lots of CB ((((Hugs)))) and ++++Prayers++++ to you and your family every moment of the day!

Hi Breu Crew,
Sorry I haven't written for so long. I think of you guys daily. My own 9 year old reminded me of how much Bryce's life has affected us. She said "friday was the day Bryce went to heaven". I asked her how she remembered that. She said it was the same day as one of her friends birthdays and she just remembered thinking about that last year. She said she thought about Bryce alot. I had been thinking about you guys all day long buy I hadn't mentioned anything to her. I sometimes think my children are consumed with their own interests that they aren't concerned with anyone else. I was wrong. Bryce has taught us all to be compassionate. We'll pray that he keeps showing you his signs until you can see him again.
Your always in our thoughts and prayers,
Love,
Jill, Troy, Nick, Emily, and Abby

You don't know me as I found your site while visiting another, but your comments have touched me deeply. I don't understand your exact pain, but I know too well the pain of loss. My dear, sweet, strong husband died last July after only seven months of battling cancer and I am still in between shock and disbelief some days.

Thank you for sharing your loss and how you are trusting God to help you through your grief. Your words are touching lives that you don't even realize.

I ache for your loss, as well, and will keep you in my prayers. God is good.

Dear Breu Crew,
Our Love comes pouring out to Bryce's family as we remember the past year. Bryce is now in the beauty of the heavens...I see him there, blowing kisses down to you, as you would feel the wind against your cheek, know that it is Bryce blowing kisses. He can't physically touch you but...spiritually he can reach you. He will always be here in our hearts. What a wonderful memorial service for Bryce. Garett's reading was very beautiful. Bryce has touched so many lives. We love you,

Happy 8th Birthday to Joel on Monday!! Hard to believe you are going to be 8 already, you are growing up so fast!

Today and everyday my thoughts and Prayers are of all of you!! The Memorial Service sounded amazing as I am sure it was. You are all surrounded by God’s truest servers. I Pray for your continued strength. I had to put the song on Sierra’s page again that reminded me so much of what Bryce would do when he was able to shed all his illness and suffering. Susie, I believe he continues to share all of those special signs you all to comfort you the way you always comforted him.

Blessed Be!

Dear Tim, Susie, Mitch, Logan, Joel and Ethan~

This morning while I was outside doing chores some thoughts about Bryce and your family came to me and I truly feel it was a message from Bryce that he wanted me to relay to all of you.

First of all he wants you all to know that he is just fine and that he is truly happy in Heaven. He wants you to know that he loves each and every one of you so very much. He also wants you to know how very proud he is of all of you....the way that despite your pain and grief, you continue to carry on his legacy. He wants you to be happy for him. He also wants you to know he will forever be watching over each of you and is with you always. Bryce is soooo proud to be a member of the Breu Crew!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you every day, but especially today. We love and miss you guys!

God Bless,

You are truly an amazing woman-I hope I can have the opportunity to meet you someday. Bryce and the rest of your boys, are very lucky to have such an amazing woman as their mother. I read your journal entries and am moved to tears at almost every entry and story you tell! Your beautiful relationship with God is one to be envied! I just wanted to write and say HAPPY 1st HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY BRYCE! Tell my dad hello. I bet he would be proud to be your Grandpa in heaven! I hold my son Bennett a little tighter and pray to God for you and your family so often! Thank you and take care!

So sorry I haven't signed your guestbook for so long. I think of you and Bryce and your family often. Your journal enteries always touch me so deeply and stir up such emotion. Your solid faith which shines through your entries so gracefully is such an inspiration. The honesty of your words, your unconditional love for Bryce and the brothers, the unspeakable heartache your family has endured . . sometimes it is all overwhelming. I always keep you in prayer and I thank God for Bryce, for you, and for your family and the touch you have had on so many lives. God bless you and keep you and give you strength for each day.

I will be thinking of you, especially on the 22nd, when your precious little boy was cradled into the loving arms of His Heavenly Father. The picture you have on here now with Bryce sitting in the field remains me of Heaven's green pastures and the 23rd Psalm. How appropriate...My love, thoughts, and prayers. Carol

Dearest Susie and Tim...I am not alone when I say that I have been thinking about you this week.....and every single day since I first heard Bryce's story. I know your pain remains almost unbearable at times. There just aren't words...I have been thinking this week about what all the kids do in Heaven to celebrate their heavenly birthdays. I suppose Bryce's might have a John Deere theme...and maybe a wrestling tournament thrown in there too. Some orange balloons....lots of singing and maybe some dancing. I am not sure what Bryce's favorite foods were, but I bet they will be heaped on the table for everyone. I am praying you are all able to feel God's arms around you and the love of so many family members and friends. I also pray you can feel Bryce's presence stronly in your hearts. He loves you all so very, very much........angie

Tim Susie and boys, One year it doesn't seem possible yet it seems like an eternity without Bryce. There is something about the first year adjusting to the loss of a loved one, a child so much more. Our prayers are with you always. Only time and faith in God and family, friends( of which you are well endowed with) will help. Our hearts and ears are always here for you. Love Terry and Alan

Hi Tim and Susie,
We wanted you to know that we are thinking of you and praying for you so much this week!!!!! It was so nice of you to come to Eagle Bluff to be with the 4th Graders for the day. When you first arrived, I watched how they all flock towards you - and there is just no doubt how much Bryce and your family means to them! I give you so much credit and admiration for continuing to be apart of the 4th Graders lives!
Susie, I also saw the eagle flying when we were doing the treetops! I yelled out to everyone to look at the eagle and was totally thinking of Bryce too. Also, I wanted to say "thanks" to Tim for showing off his awesome superman moves coming down the zip-line.....right after the kids watched me up there shaking and scared to jump off for like 5 minutes....!!! :)
Love and Prayers going out to you!!! Pam :)

Hey guys - It's just me - Tried to sign in last night after I read your posting and I think there was a little "Bryce action" going on with my computer.I tried to get to your guest book and the computer wouldn't go. As I waited for something to happen I had the picture of Bryce sitting in the bathtub on my screen and couldn't get any farther. The look on his face in that picture was as he looked as he tried to pull some shenanigans while we were at the hospital. I think of you guys often and know that we love and miss you guys so much - We had a great time at the hotel - Thanks for inviting us. Love and hugs to you all - By the way, Tim, I too loved the "zip line" at Eagle Bluff.

Dear Ones
I have read this web-site so many times. My heart aches for you. I lost a son too, but I had many more years with him - 19 in all! All we can do is cherish the memories and cling to God's promise of a reunion with them someday...that is what keeps me going. There is so much love in your family...in your hearts...that is beautiful. Your writing is an inspiration to me and I am sure to many others. God has a purpose in that for you, dear. You sister in Wanamingo is my daughter Melanie's beutician (I believe I have that right). Abbey O'Reilly (my adopted daughter) is precious to me, and I know she and Chris know you well. We have shared our thoughts about your wonderful son Bryce and how much we wish he could still be here with you and his brothers and friends for more fun-filled times. Then, again, their spirit never leaves us, and Jesus welcomes the little chidren to come unto Him. I bet Heaven's playground is a fun place for them too. Life here is but a fleeting moment in one's life compared to eternity where there will be no end, no Goodbyes, no sadness or pain. How wonderful that will be! We must not get too anxious as God has a plan all worked out for us, and we must trust in His perfect timing! My love to you all as a family on this Valentines Day 2008. God bless and take care, Carol

A Time To Grieve........A Time To Heal
Have you ever noticed the many mixed up
Emotions involved in grieving?
On the one hand you feel restless.
On the other hand, You feel like
You don't want to move at all.
You feel desperately alone,
and yet you don't want anyone around.
You feel scatterbrained, forgetful,
And yet, frantically meticulous.
You feel like crying at nothing.
and sometimes laughing at anything.
Being around a crowd of people is fine
As long as they don't talk to you.
And yet, if they don't talk to you
You feel as if nobody cares.
You want so desperately for someone
To mention your loved one,
To remember the life that was.
And yet it can make you furious if
All they want to talk about is the dead one,
And never mention the living ones.
Grief settles over you like a hot blanket.
You're as cold as the winter snow.
Grief presses on you like a steam roller.
You're floating in a bubble above yourself.
Grief boxes you in on four sides and introduces you
To a pain no one should have to know.
But then, once again, you begain to feel compassion.
You relate to other parents who have had
And experience similar to your own.
And eventually, with a light as sharp as a sunburst,
You hear yourself saying your loved one's name.
With an unfamiliar smile on your face.
You remember some of the funny times,
And feel laughter building in your throat.
One morning you notice the sun is shining,
The flowers are bursting with the colors or spring.
Three seasons have passed unnoticed....
And, somehow, you are still here.
Even though your loved one is still there.
You feel your heart swell with a love
You never even knew could exist.
And you find a place in your life
For something called,
Peace........?
And then, ever so gently, the memories
Enfold you in a warmth as soothing as
A cool shower on a hot summer day.
So you find you want to remember.
And tender memories of love lift you
To unreachable heights,
To the brightest of stars,
To the loveliest touch of a mom!

Memories are the legacy of love!

Hello Susie, you don't know me, we've only met once at a wrestling match after Bryce's death. I haven't signed in a very long time and haven't checked in in quite awhile either. Then I saw you in Zumbrota at another wrestling event last Friday, and haven't been able to get you and your family out of my mind. So I will pray for you, pray for peace, comfort and healing to surround you all. Praying for more "good" days of fun memories and laughter to fill your hearts and your home.

Sincerely,
Jen

Susie,
Sorry I have not signed lately. I know this time is getting tougher as you approach February. You are there for so many. Know that you are in our prayers too. Now sharing the loss we completely understand your pain. Each day brings its own joys and sorrows as we go through memories. Mark and I have little things we do. Today he left a phone message for me while I was at lunch. The message was simply Nikki's song (Ready, Set, Don't Go) He didn't say a word just played the song. Brought a smile on my face and tears to my eyes. We miss our Nikki terribly but we were so blessed that God gave her to us if even for a short time. The pain is real but the knowing we will hold our child again has to help get us through each day. Each day I know I am that much closer to being with her again, in more then the spirit.
God bless you Susie and Tim and your family. You are so giving (we thank you for everything!) Make sure to take time for you.

I know that sometimes it is hard to look at the things we do and think of them as "special" but I truly feel that Gods plan was for Bryce to be the voice from beyond and for you to be the voice here. You are truly amazing in the things you write and the inspiration that you give so many and Bryce continues to be remembered and loved and missed. He has helped so many with his beautiful smile. A smile that is still remembered by everyone who was lucky enough to have seen it. Nearly a year ago and I can still see that beautiful little boys smile. He was special and his 8 1/2 years on earth were short but definetely not wasted. This, in my opinion, was Gods reasons. He knew that Bryce was special and unforgettable and he knew that his Mom was amazing and would share her great faith with many many others.

Hey Breu Crew~

We had an AWESOME time on Sunday!! We so enjoyed the waterpark and having a chance to visit with you guys again. We need to get together like that more often. Bryce was never far from our thoughts on Sunday (actually he is never far from our thoughts every day:-) We know the next few weeks will be extra tough for your family as the anniversary of Bryce's passing draws nearer. As always we will be praying for God's peace and comfort in your lives.

We were so glad to get the chance to finally meet Nyla, Tom and their boys. I wish we would have had more time to visit...we will just have to do this again. It was great to see Brenda, E and the girls again too. Thanks again for the wonderful afternoon and evening.

P.S. We had 6 inches of new snow today and the kids got out of school at 1:00 today so they were very happy about that!! Matt and Sarah went snowmobiling with some friends...they have been waiting to do that for awhile now.

God Bless,

Hi,
I just found your site thru my Doctor Barb Berg, who is also so struggling with cancer. Bryce is such a beautiful boy and out of all the Moms and Dads in the world, he was blessed to have you as his parents.
Your faith is so very strong. I am longing for that closeness with God that your family has. I'm not sure where to turn to. What religious family do you belong to? I hope that you don't mind asking. I just really need to find that peace in my life. Thank-you so very much!!!

Dear Susie & Family:

While I check Bryce's site often, I haven't sent a note in a long time. I think of you and your family so very often Susie.

We are consusmed in a major battle for Will's life when we learned on 12/11/08 that his cancer had returned in two new places in the brain. I still cannot believe this is happening to my precious young son and our family. However, we are not giving up and are seeking opinions in Washington DC, New York City and possibly other places. We are Will's Warriors and will continue to battle for him! Please pray for Will and our family that we will make the best possible decisions for him as we move ahead with treatment.

Hi Susie,

Just a quick note to let you know we are still (and always will) thinking of Bryce. I was on my way home from gymnastics tonight, after one more long day, and feeling rather tired and sorry for myself. I turned on the radio and "Brave" was playing. It brought a huge smile to my face and made me realize how GREAT it was to be able to be so busy with life. Thanks for sharing him with us!!

Good moring Susie,
I hope that all is well with the Breuer's this warm January morning. I wondered how starting a New Year might be...as you would say, I 'kicked my prayers up a notch' for you in the last few weeks. I pray for your peace and an understanding that I call Divine Perspective...a contentment beyond words knowing that seeing your Brycer again is literally JUST a lifetime away. 'Time' as we know it goes so fast... I do not know what I will do if/when you 'close up shop' on Bryce's page (sounds so selfish when I read that again, but...well). Your journal entries stir my soul...they remind me in the midst of tragedy what is truly good in this world. In the midst of tragedy, that there are amazing people whose faith in God is as strong as it ever was. Thank you for that Susie. You are inspiring.
God Bless you Breuer's!

Another Year for Thee

Another year is dawning!
Dear Master, let it be,
In working or in waiting,
Another year with Thee!

Another year of leaning
Upon Thy loving breast,
Of even deeper trusting,
Of quiet, happy rest.

Another year of mercies,
Of faithfulness and grace;
Another year of gladness,
In the shining of Thy face.

Another year of progress,
Another year of praise;
Another year of proving
Thy presence "all the days."

Another year of service,
Of witness to Thy love;
Another year of training
For holier work above.

Another year is dawning!
Dear Master, let it be,
On earth, or else in heaven,
Another year for Thee!

Checking in to tell you that I MISS YOU!! Have had you on my mind and thought about picking up the phone a million times and haven't so I'm sorry for that. Loved the Christmas card and thank you for such a beautiful letter. We admire you in more ways than you know. Can't wait to see you in 2008 but just a little reminder... The interstate now runs to Montana so you guys should check that out and come see us!!! Bob knows some hot fishing spots and the boys would love it! Just something to think about! Hope you know I'm sending BIG hugs to you guys, we miss you very much and pray for you daily.
Love, Alyssa, Taylor, Tawnia and Bob
