Daley Ponderings

I don't know the whole story ( this article is the first I have heard of it), but if you can believe the media, I guess "they" will be coming to get Jonathan too, since he has picked up something off of the floor and put it in his mouth. Horrors. Woman whose child was taken at birth fights to... (More)

Pittsburgh vehicle drivers need to learn the law. A guy swerved into me on my bike today. I honked at him, but he continued into my path. I yelled at him, and he stopped and got out of his car and made like he was going to do something. He then decided better of it (I guess I must have been... (More)

I just got back from the courthouse. The judge upheld all charges. The prosecution added a fourth charge as well, that I didn't really understand -- It was a little hard to hear everything. There is an additional charge of endangering the welfare of a minor, I think having to do with... (More)

Jonathan has two teeth! They are his bottom front ones. The left one came in two Saturdays ago, and the right one last Saturday. We can see them when we look in his mouth now - when he lets us look! (More)

I thought I would be writing this post to say how great Lingo is, and how you should all sign up for their service. They answer their phone within a couple rings, no matter when I called, and sounded like they would be able to fix any technical problems I had. However, after spending hours on... (More)

Judy is still in jail, held over the weekend for a variety of delays and other "mistakes" such as: the guy who takes the bail isn't here today the guy who does the psychological evaluation doesn't work on Saturdays the guy who does the psychological evaluations decided not to work on... (More)

Hi all. Thanks for continuing to pray for us, and for letting us know that you haven't forgotten all this stuff. Unfortunately, I am still adding to this web page in 2004, who would have thought? I don't think I have written previously that the case has switched attorneys, sometime towards the... (More)

Our lawyer talked with the district attorney at some point after the inquest finished to encourage him to end this whole legal ordeal, and to (re)emphasize that we are not in favor of this. It sounded as if he didn't really care a whole lot what we think. The estimate is that he will take 4 to 6... (More)

Statement of Purpose We gather before God in remembrance of the life and death of this child of God, Isaac Christopher Daley. We come to praise God for life in the midst of death; for God's good understanding in the face of bewildering sorrow; for the sharing of comfort with one another;... (More)

There was a funeral held today for Isaac in Old Saybrook, CT. Many members of our family were there, as well as a couple friends. The text of the bulletin is below. My grandfather led the service and a meditation on our hope and expectation of life after death for ourselves. There were many... (More)

The coroner finally called today, to let us know that a date has been scheduled for the "findings" of whether a trial is recommended or not. Next Friday at 10:30AM. Prayer requests: Continued prayers for us to trust God's guidance in our lives, and for our faith as we seek Him. (More)

A funeral service has been scheduled for June 15th, 4:00PM, at a cemetary in Old Saybrook, CT, where a number of Heather's extended family has been buried. While it will be a small service, intended mostly for family, if you were unable to attend the memorial service in Pittsburgh, you are... (More)

We went to the CORE ceremony today. The ceremony was for donors and recipients of organ donations from 2002. Isaac's heart valves were collected and frozen for future use. They have not yet been transplanted into anyone yet, but I guess they can be stored for a couple years and they will still... (More)

These songs were sung at the memorial service, and have been very meaningful to us Thanks to the writers and composers for providing a means of God's grace with these words. In Christ Alone Stuart Townend and Keith Getty, ©2001 Thankyou Music In Christ alone my hope is found, He is my... (More)

The service was great! Thank you to all who came, and to all who helped out with setting up, cleaning up, and making food, running the overhead projector, leading worship, setting up and playing the cd player, making photocopies, and running back to the church to get the bulletins that I left...
