Condolences, Sally. Having [previously] been
widowed myself - in
1991, at age
47 in
my case
- I can, even now,
still readily identify with the
much more recent pangs of grief
you're going through
so soon after
your sad loss.
However, what
I found made things easier to bear, was the fact that, like
yours and Keith's,
ours had been a happy and fulfilling union ...
one with lots of
*precious memories to look back on. Indeed, to this day, I remember my GP's words at the time:
"Although a person we hold most dear may have gone from our lives, the
LOVE itself remains with us in our hearts
forever".
As with me, it is
*those that you'll cherish in the years ahead. Meanwhile,
to this friendly forum and God Bless.
