When I am gone, release me -let me go
I have so many things to see and do.-
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that we had so many years
I gave you love, you can only guess
How much you gave me in happiness
I thank you for the love each have shown
But now it is time I travelled alone
So grieve awhile for me, if grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust -
It is only for a while that we must part
So bless those memories within your heart.-
I will not be far away, for life goes on.
So if you need me, call and I will come. -
Though you cannot see or touch me,
I will be near -
And if you listen with your heart,
You will hear -
All of my love around you, soft and clear.-
Then when you must come this way alone,
I will greet you with a smile and "welcome home"

The world just doesn't feel right today. I am so sorry for your loss, but I am grateful that your wonderful soulmate suffers no more.

How are you doing, Diane? That is a beautiful Obituary. :cuddle;

Thank you all my dear IHD family. This has been a very busy week and last night was my first restful nights sleep. My twin brother Dean is here, he postponed his trip to South Africa, he was going to leave Monday but is here for a few weeks. (He lives in Iowa I'm in Mass) .
We had a beautiful service for Frank. We tried to make it as traditional Chinese funeral service as we could. His Nephew and 2 nieces helped us with all the traditions. I had a catered banquet from a resturant from Boston. ( we live 50 miles west of Boston & I had to convince them to come out). Franks nephew came from NY, his niece from Texas, his other niece lives here in Mass.
Frank is a US Vietnam Vet (he was drafted 1 year after he came to this country) so we had a Honor Guard from our local American Legion at the service.
So many people attended, the line was out the door all night. His Doctor (surgeon) also attended the wake. Many from the post office that he worked at along with all his tennis buddies & our dancing friend. We will all miss him so very much.
Last night I went to a friends house to do a Zumba work out. I haven't exercised for awhile & it felt so good to sweat & work off the tension, I'm sure that helped me sleep last night.
My son wrote a beautiful letter about "Frank & Jelly" (our dog who also passed on the same day). I will post it under the pets section.
Life will be so different now, I need to find a job as I cannot collect his Social Security until I'm 62 (I am 54). I will get a check from the Postal service but it is not enough to live on. Much of our $ is in retirerment accounts which I need to be 62 to use them. I plan on paying off the house with the life insurance so that will be 1 less bill every month.

Diane, what a lovely tribute to Frank that was, for so many people to attend his funeral, he was a well loved man. He was also a brave and caring man. I bet you were so proud of him.
Life will change a lot for you now but you are brave enough to take on this challenge . I will be thinking of you, please pop in now and again to let us know how you are doing.
-
Oh Diane, for now, im just going to send love and prayers. Think of you daily, and hope your coping. Im glad your brother is there, and that your getting some sleep. Sleep is what will bring you strength to carry on, as well as prayers of course...
And, What a wonderful service, and bunch of friends and family to attend. You, and he are blessed..
bless you lady, from your tuckered out friend

It sounds like you have a good plan for your future. Frank would be proud of that. I included Jelly with Franks name on our memorial rememberance scroll in the memorial section. Hope you don't mind.
