Thank You Rose by cdonohoue

Thank You Rose

I want to thank this entire community for the outpouring of prayers and good wishes after the passing of my ex husband. I am very touched and I have felt your prayers.

The boys and I have been working tirelessly to clean out what a pack rat loner had boxed up. I found several old cameras that I will photograph later to get feed back on. It is so sad that a life is lived in three rooms. We are working towards a Memorial Service next Saturday in the nursing home where his mother is currently a resident so that she can attend. This entire thing has been so very hard on her sweet soul. She is devastated that her 63 year old baby is gone.

This reinforces my good intentions to go and make our arrangements so that my sons don't have to figure anything out.

Again, thank you all. I will try to check in and make some comments. I love you all.
beautifully captured Cathy. Fav.

I've been catching up on your posts, Cathy (though I need all week to do it properly). I'm so sorry to hear of this bereavement too, no matter what David became he was special to you once and I know how that feels. After finalising my divorce from Ed I made sure to make my will and make my wishes known... my Dad spent his whole life asking to be buried then seemed to change his mind so imagine our shock when we found a codicil on his will saying he wished for Mum to decide what to do with his remains................ gosh what a wrench and responsibility that was for her on top of everything else. Anyway, I digress. I know you will have dealt with all this with dignity and grace and add you and the family to my prayers today. The strength you have used up this week will start to tell, so make some time for a gentle day (or month) and rest up with a cup of tea, you deserve it. Take care x
