Default Just hoping..I can be..on your ..side!
Wow,the twists and turns of fate! I am just now comming out of a similar situation..except..as an observer..rather than a particpant..(wife's Dad)..and the time spent with the .."rellies"..made me appreciate how much.."here". means to me! I Can't even try to understand..what you are going through, but..you and your better half..seem to be.."people who are..out there..by design, purpose, and dedication",and I feel that the 'flow' from your architecture and design, will give you strength, through the troubled times..our hearts and souls, are meagre support! Looking for the "brighter sun"!

Syd:

The email just came in notifying me of your post.

What a coincidence that you say such kind words on the day of my mum's passing.

She left us this afternoon, peacefully thank heavens.

I just happened to be on the computer letting our relatives all round the world know that she has gone.

We want you all to know that this was not unexpected, and while we are sad, we are also relieved that there will be no more suffering.

Thank you for your kind words.

Keith

Default ...no apologies needed...
Syd:

Certainly no apologies needed for your reverence.

Let me assure you that my mum very much lives on in all that I do. She has always encouraged me to reach for that elusive thing just beyond the possible.

Funny, just after I pass condolensces to you for your loss, my Father in law died on Tuesday evening from complications of Pneumonia..unexpected..so have gone to 'damage control' mode..and almost have everything in place for the "rellies', friends, service..etc. I was impressed how I could 'change gears", and keep stuff together!

So now I am able to pass along my condolences to you and yours.

Whether or not the loss of a family member is expected or comes as a surprise does not make the loss any easier. Please accept our sincere condolences for your untimely loss.

As for our family, we will be holding a celebration of life on Sunday in remembrance of our mum.
