I know what a difficult Christmas this is for you and I send you my thoughts and prayers.
Both my husband and I lost a first cousin this holiday season.
Thank you for the wonderful advice.

This is so difficult to put into words, I lost my mother this morning at 7am. She was 84 and I thought I had accepted the fact that she was very close to being with her own Mother soon. Iremembered you today and thought of how beautifully you had written of your Mom. I felt the need to re-read your tribute. I can't express to you how thankful I am to you for your caring and helpful words. I now know that nothing prepares you for this loss of friendship and deep love that I feel for my Mom. I will put one foot in front of the other and cherish my memories. Thank You my Ebay Friend. God Bless. Suzanne
Dear Cathi, it has been only a day since my beloved father passed away. The grief is so deep. I took your advice and put old photos of my Dad as well as current photos and put them throughout the house. I even have photos of him on the fridge. His sweet face is everywhere for me to look at and love. Thank You again for your support at this difficult time for all of us who have lost a loved one this Holiday season. Sandra
