Thank you all for your kind words.
Today has been another busy day, we have been to the bank to take care of finances, ordered the flowers, paid the funeral director bill, we had visitors call, and then i looked through his clothes to make sure everything is ready for the funeral on Friday. Now i am at home, really tired, cant go to sleep when i go to bed, then wake up early - not like me at all. Oh well tomorrow is another day to deal with.......

I know Judy - thats all that we can do, one of the nice things going on is all the visitors and friends of both my Aunt and Uncle from years ago. We are having a nice time visiting with them and talking about old times and lovely memories we all have.
People are being just so very kind to us, it makes you realise how nice most people really are. Thank you for thinking about us.

I know it still must be hard but hopefully everything went well and the family is more at ease.
Big cyber hug. |

Oh... thanks so much for thinking about me, we had the funeral on Friday, and it was a really lovely service, everyone attended that she would have wanted to be there.
It was an ordeal, but somehow enjoyable at the same time, a family friend said such a nice eulogy, it was so moving, another friend did a poem that was very appropriate, and we had some lovely hymns at church, i dont know if you are familiar with them. (1) - I watch the sunrise + (2) - Do not be afraid. In the crematorium we had - The Way We Were (Barbara Strisand) and then Amazing Grace, as everyone was leaving. We then went and had a little something to eat and drink, which was nice for my Uncle to get to speak to old friends and family he had not seen for a while. So now we try to get used to her not being with us anymore, its very hard for him, but we talk and laugh a lot, and time is a good healer and will make life more bearable for us.

I'm glad it went as well as possible. Now comes the hard part.. adjusting to life without her. You have a wonder attitude that I know will help you and your Uncle a lot!
