'Echoes what Bunns says' they look after us Bunns don't they? 

Yes, it sounds really lovely and very fitting too.

Thank you for the feedback, Lori

They do indeed sprouty! My respect for the Seattle peeps has increased tenfold after the sensitive and caring way they have been throughout this sad time... not that it has surprised me - they're a great bunch!

Echoes that ^^^

RIP brisket

It does indeed Lori, a very fitting, fond farewell. NGB Brisket

I'm back home after brisket's funeral. You were all well represented by the beautiful red roses. Thank you all so much for them. It was also lovely to see you represented in person. Brisket would have been really touched, I'm sure, as I was.

For me the funeral was harrowing, and I feel tired now.

I've said it before, but I can't say it too often - thank you all for your amazing kindness and warmth. You've been so kind, and I can understand why your community was such a big part of brisket's life.

Last post to brisket.

My dear on-line friend, I read of your departure within days of losing my Mum. On Friday we had a simple and dignified service in my parent's village church and a cremation after.

My Dad had been sent a condolence card by my Mum's carer. Marg had posted it in your loved Gaga forum in this thread dedicated to you. "All is well" It was read at the cremation part of proceedings and when I heard the words as I held my Dad's hand and smoothed his back, I also had you and Marg in my mind to help me do it. 

For those of you all who have lost a life partner or a partner of any sort at whatever point in your lives and for whatever ultimate reason, all I can say is how awesome it must be to have it in your lives and as I now understand how incomprehensible is for me to even dare to share those feelings of separation.

Sorry brisket. I know you'd understand what I'm trying to say.  

Oh. And Lori and Rosemary and all in Seattle. Thank you. Roses in June for brisket and my Mum too. (There were a simple 5 roses on her coffin to represent my Dad and us siblings. It was just perfect.) 

Xochi 

I don't really know what to say.

Xochi my thoughts were with you and your dad and  family  your mums funeral sounds perfect the five roses on her coffin was  lovely..I had  All is Well read at my husbands funeral,when I miss my husband and feel down I read those  words and it always  makes me feel so much  better,  I hope it does for you too and your lovely dad .. I believe every word written in All is Well.. thank you   

Xochi

xochi - - so hard losing a parent  - but your 5 roses sound  a lovely poignant touch - lots of

Xochi,thoughts are with you.

Big s and s, Pam.

Xochi , a big hug for you  xxxx

Your mums funeral sounded like it was a lovely farewell. I hope the passing of time eases your pain. I lost my dad very suddenly just over a year ago and at the time never thought I would get over it. I don't think you ever do get over it but you learn to cope and one thing I did learn is to talk is good. Whether it's here, in PM, with loved ones or a complete stranger. Good memories can get you through the roughest of times so don't be afraid to take time to sit down and remember them. 

Xochi. My deepest sympathies and big hugs to you darling 

Xochi, love and hugs to you.
