That beautiful poem from Eileen says it all, Slinki; I hope it brings you some comfort.

My deepest sympathies to you

 to all who are mourning/suffering 

Deepest condolences to you and your family (((hug))). Like others I too have been there having lost both parents. I love these words from a James Taylor song "shower the people you love with love" we never know when anyone we love and care about may leave us. Lots of Love to you xxx

That is lovely!

Aww Slinky, I don't know what to say.  My heart goes out to you.

Will send  Reiki to give you strength in the coming days.

Beautiful song Rose. My sister and I sang it at our Mum`s funeral. 

Thinking about you, Slinki   xxx

Thankyou everybody . Sounds daft, I'm a bit "stiff upper lip" in real life but this place is just such a help ( both when times are a bit rubbish and when all's good) 

Really really grateful. 

Hope all those who have lost someone are doing as well as they can xxx

and Eileen - that's the one that dad chose  xx

No words ...Just ..and love for all those that need them..XX

I am so very sorry for your loss Slinki, my thoughts are we you and yours xx
