Hello David It's nice to see that you are feeling happier now, you have put that difficult task behind you. I know a bit how you were feeling, It was my Hubby's birthday on Friday (he died last year ) but we both got through it didn't we. I know that Ray (my Hubby) and your dear wife would not want us to be unhappy. So David, I wish you well, take care and continue to enjoy your classics!!! Lots of love Lynda xxxx |

Dear David, I know it may seem a bit late to add a message to this thread, but it's taken me a bit of time to find the quote that I wanted to send you. I'm sure it's not 'too' late - I sent this to my aunt when my uncle died and she said she found comfort in it for a long time - Death is nothing at all. I have only slipped away into the next room. I am I, and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name; speak to me in the easy way that you always used. Put no difference in your tone; wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was, let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was; there is unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner. All is well. Canon Scott Holland 1910 With kind thoughts and virtual hugs. |

HI DAVID I am so proud of you for finishing an awful task,keep your chin up and be proud of yourself.if you take one day at a time it does get easier.I lost my husband nearly 2 years ago and clearing his clothes was the hardest thing to do.I keep a photo of my husband on my bedside cabinet and every birthday/anniversary/christmas/fathers day i always put a bunch of roses next to his photo. Dont forget that you have many friends on here that will support you,just give a shout and we all will be here to answer. sorry i have not been online as my computer had to go and have a new motherboard put in. take care sue |
