Seriousness Light a Virtual Candle - Page 4

GeoffC · 08-03-2009, 04:07 AM

candles we lit...
thoughts we transmit....
care to sit with open arms around...
love from all to each..
abound......

Edit to add : from the User Poetry thread with some adjustment

we are here
all yours,
burden us with your fears
and lean on our shoulders.
as your heart trembles
and your body pains
cry without shame,
let us be there.

I've just read of your loss, pshrynk. I'm so sorry. Words just can't express.

Tracey · 08-03-2009, 06:19 PM

Just read about your loss Pshyrnk. I can't imagine what pain you and your family must be experiencing right now, I just hope that you'll feel better soon and my best wishes are with you and those close to you at this time.

I can write about it a liitel now. Dad was one of those larger than life characters. He had so many friends that I don't think that Mom even knew who they all were. He was gruff and deamnding at times, but he loved his family with all his heart. He has been slowly deteriorating over the past few years, with increasing problems with getting around due to degen arthritis, but never complained. He became ill abvout two weeks ago and went to his doctor. The lung cancer was found then. He was briefly ill and on a ventilator for a short time until the doctor determined that there was nothing to be done. He was somewhat coherent after they took him off the vent and died about twelve hours later.

We all said that Dad, a lifelong Cubs fan, slid into home with his cleats up. He was terribly afraid of lingering and/or being on long term life supprt, so he went the wayt aht he really wanted to.

I and my family thank all of you for the thoughts and prayers that came our way in our time of sorrow...

Quote:

AN HONEST man here lies at rest
As e’er God with his image blest;
The friend of man, the friend of truth,
The friend of age, and guide of youth:
Few hearts like his, with virtue warm’d,
Few heads with knowledge so informed:
If there’s another world, he lives in bliss;
If there is none, he made the best of this

Robert Burns, Epitaph on William Muir.

With sympathies to all who have lost someone.

Don't thank us, it was only natural that we feel for you...
