Death can be a blessing, like my father's but still, I had to half bury

rocks from his property and form a pathway here at my house, sitting in the dirt, to feel better. Just a little more hand holding and sympathy and what I'm sure you do well, the little things, will help her most, I'm sure.

I am so sorry that she had to be without you when he passed away.

I can remember losing my sister (she was 47). I reacted alot like Queen V. I didn't really want to talk about her, but found myself bringing her up in nearly every conversation. It's kind of like letting the pain out in little doses - it hurts less that way, it seems. Just listen - it will help.

Funny how routine activities change and become
more symbolic and meaningful when there's a sudden shift in the universe like you and Queen V now have to deal with. It's so good you're there for her.

Deepest condolences to you and Queen for the passing of her father.
Losing a parent is very hard.  She will need your love and comfort when she returns...
