Andy, my sincere condolences to your family.
Same for you, Wolfie.
This is one of my favorites:
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I've found that peace at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My Life's been full, I savoured much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch,
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
Same for you, Wolfie.

Hi overs 
Have a good weekend from me too.
This is a short poem I read many years ago, but has always stayed with me.
‘I looked at a robin, watching it feed,
And thought to myself, how different indeed
Are we to this robin, for I have to concede,
Man takes what he wants, bird takes what he needs.’

Hi all,
How are you after your fall Sass?
Hugs to you Wolfie my friend
And also to you and the little Terrifics, Andy.
FBL, hope your mom is okay too after her fall.
Take care of yourselves and each other, this week has shown us yet again we need to treasure those we love, hold them close and tell them that they matter. Life is too short.

Good morning Overs.
I slept through the night, the first time in weeks, the healing begins.
I went to see the funeral director yesterday. From an earlier phone conversation I only remembered his name as Sam. When I saw him I thought I recognised him and then he asked if I had children who went to our local school. It turned out that he was an ex-maths teacher who taught our children and had met Mrs T at parents evenings.
Football this morning for DD.
Have a good day everyone.

Andy, continued support.
Mom is doing fine. She's looking forward to my Thanksgiving visit in a few weeks, as am I.
Heading to another card show this morning. I'm working on several different sets now, so am sure to find something!
Have a great weekend, overs!
