Orphan.

My mother passed away on July 12th, two and a half years after my Pa. I can't believe they're both now gone, but at least they're together again. RIP.

No words of mine can possibly relieve you of your grief, but rest knowing our thoughts are with you and that not all tears are an evil.

My condolences Gecko. Wish there was something i could say, but like you said take joy from the knowledge that they are together now and at peace.

Thanks so much MK, it still seems a bit surreal!

Sorry for your loss. My mother passed many years ago when I was a teenager, so I certainly sympathize with how you feel.

We Orthodox say of the reposed: "May their memory be eternal."

May her memory be eternal, and may Heaven smile on you, P.

Thank you w.e messy, and lovely to see you again! At least I had more time than you did with your mum. There's peace knowing she hasn't ended up in a Rest Home unable to do anything for herself! Thank you again.
