it's tough you have been such a loving family obviously
just shows a person that every day is precious, not to be wasted. Just like you are precious to us and must take care of yourself midst all this that has happened and continues to happen.

And I will give you a spiritual hug
Pat. At least it is just like going to sleep for those who leave us and we must try not to grieve too harshly if we have truly loved the lost one.

I like "this is the day the Lord has made, rejoice and be glad in it."
My sis always loved birds, always had a bird feeder. Wouldn't you know it, yesterday I ran out of bird seed, and after I got the call from my younger sis, didn't have the oomph to go to the store. But this morning I picked up 20 pounds at Lowe's, and the sparrow flock has gathered now for lunch and gossip. Thanks, Ciel and everyone. I am comforted by your kindness. :)

This post really touches my heart, for the same sort of things have been and are happening in my extended family and to people that I know. Sooner or later, somewhere around the bend, we all come to the end of our way. "This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it."

It's hard to find solace for so much loss..
Even suggesting spiritual comfort seems out of place. So I will just sit here by you, and we can hold hands for a while.
