Please accept my condolences. Wishing you strength in the weeks and months ahead. Your dear husband is at peace now, time to take care of yourself
So very sorry to hear this sad news, Geraldine. Wishing you strength in the months ahead. Sending love and hugs xx Take time for yourself, then please keep in touch with all your friends on TP. You have so much to offer with your kind, wise words xxx
My grandmother said she was always aware of my grandfather helping her, in life he had been gassed so was very poorly. I too when very young felt his loving presence, this was long before my grandmother spoke to me.
I think loving energy is quite tangible, I know it does not entirely replace what we have lost but it can comfort.
So sorry Geraldine. xxx
“They that love beyond the world cannot be separated by it.
Death cannot kill what never dies.
Nor can spirits ever be divided, that love and live in the same divine principle, the root and record of their friendship.
If absence be not death, neither is theirs.
Death is but crossing the world, as friends do the seas; they live in one another still.
For they must needs be present, that love and live in that which is omnipresent.
In this divine glass they see face to face; and their converse is free, as well as pure.
This is the comfort of friends, that though they may be said to die, yet their friendship and society are, in the best sense, ever present, because immortal.”
William Penn

Many thanks to all of you for your understanding, especially Geraldine who is suffering recent loss but found it in her heart to respond.
That's the thing I love about TP, you can speak freely about your emotions knowing no one will judge you. I'm feeling a bit brighter now thanks to being able to offload to you all.
I'm so sorry Geraldine. If you can, please stay with us. You always make us feel better, and we love you. Mary xx
Sending heartfelt sympathy and love, you have been a shining light on here for us all, you would be greatly missed. Take care.
So sorry. I always felt uplifted by your stories of what happened in Keith's Care home. You put so much effort for Keith and the other residents. Take care of yourself at this difficult time. Best wishes Susan
I am so sorry to hear your sad news Geraldine, your Blue Eyed Boy will always be in your heart. You are both in my prayers. Love Kerryx
Thinking of you @kindred I’m so sorry for the loss of your beloved blue eyed boy ...and I thought about the poem from Carve Her Name With Pride posted on TP .This is the last verse of that poem .....
A sleep I shall have
A rest I shall have
Yet death will be but a pause
For the peace of my years in the long green grass
Will be yours and yours and yours
My husband and I have known and loved this poem after seeing the film over 60 odd years ago.
Take care of yourself A x
