Oh Diane.....

I'm so sorry to hear that.... May the lovely Frank rest in peace....

Love, Hugs, and all my thoughts and prayers are winging their way to you.....

Darth....

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"

Diane, it is a sad day, but a blessed day as well.  Your Frank is finally comfortable in Gods arms.. My prayers now are for you dear lady.  You have done a horrendously wonderful job in carring for him here, now he is lifted from pain and suffering.  Take care of yourself and let others help you through this.   I wish you all the healing and peace in your days to come.. with love and hugs and prayers,,  boswife, jill

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. It just breaks my heart.

I know I am new here but you and Frank were one of the members who welcomed me here to IHD.  I am sure from all the wonderful things I have read that Frank was a wonderful man and you such a wonderful caretaker. 

My prayers are with you.
