Sarah, so sorry that you are going thru the anniversary date, its so hard, my sis just passed the 1 year mark with her husband, its just so overwhelming sometimes to think that time just keeps going on when the whole world should be feeling our loss not literally but

it seems everything should just stop. Im praying for your well being thru these difficult days

Dear Mary ...  Bob is there because he is embedded in your heart and your mind is filled with wonderful memories.  I often feel how sad it is that some never experience the love all of us have had and the good memories.  At times I too feel Ernie isn't with me, but every so often I feel he's right behind me if I'm cooking dinner or doing something else.  Other times I don't feel he is there.  What astonishes me the most is the years at one point seemed to drag and suddenly now I'm facing the 10th year this April and I wonder where the years went.  I too have my cries, but not as frequently as I once did.  Hang in there my dear friend and know we are all here for you.

Love & Hugs

Marsha

Dear Sara ...  I know how it hurts your heart to think of your Ken and that it seems he was just there and now is gone.  There are no words to ease your pain, but please know we are all here for you.

It will be10 years since my Ernie passed away and sometimes it feels like yesterday and other times I wonder where the years went.  I still have a few times I have a good cry missing him and more so now that we stuck in our homes with Covid lurking.  We use to tell each other we could beat anything if we stuck together.  All our feelings are normal.  How can we love someone so deeply and no matter how many years you are with them just get on with life and never think of them again.  The are embedded in our hearts forever.  

Love & Hugs

Marsha

Thanks Todd and Chuck.....time really is funny.  The days seemed to drag on, especially the early days but the years went by in the blink of an eye.

Todd.....Hope you've been doing ok.  I remember that you're right behind me and will be thinking of you as your date comes up in a few weeks.  We're here for you to lean as well.

Dear Sara,

Time for us always seems two faced - in ways it seems to drag, then conversely we turn around and years have passed. My heart is with you today.

Love, 

Chuck

Sara - Sending you hugs and prayers my friend. I am right behind you. Claudia's DOD was 2-14-2016. Not looking forward to the 5 year either. We are here for you - your fellow support team and angels :-)

I'm not sure how it's possible that today is the 5 year anniversary of Ken's passing. To me, it was just yesterday that he left.

Chuck...I'm glad Steve's surgery was smooth and praying for a speedy recovery.  Thanks for posting the message from your friend.  I love it and posted it on my Facebook page

Hugs to you both,

Sara

Dear Chuck ...

As a;ways I enjoy reading your posts and as always very well written.  I'm still going to come after you to do some writing as an author!  You have a true gift my friend.  

I pray every night that Steve and you have good health and the surgeries and medical issues are over for Steve.  What the nurse wrote was priceless!  Thank you for sharing.

Love & Hugs

Marsha
