Dear readers


Thank you so much for your prayers, comments, e-mails and cards. Your compassion has helped us get through this very trying time.

We are slowly getting over the shock of losing our son, but we are also so grateful for the 50 years of wonderful memories he gave us.

Even though there is still much to do,  I've decided to keep the blog going starting next week, as it will be good to return to a routine and get back to some sort of normal living once more.

Again, thank you for your concern and prayers as they really did help us. We are so very, very grateful to all of you.

Charlie and the girls are fine - they are probably wondering why I'm not chasing after them with the camera....

Phyl & Hubby

    There's never any words that one can say to give you solace at a time like this.
    Your fellow bloggers are here and hopefully that will give you and hubby little added strength :)

    My Regrets, Mom, it's devastating when this happens, but as Irish said, you are not alone.

    Returning to a routine is one of the ways to begin coping with loss.

    I'm sorry for your loss.

    You and Hubby hang in there, it takes awhile to get going again after such a shock. Still sending hugs and prayers for you and your family.

    It's good to "hear" from you again. Take all the time you need; we'll still be here. May the Lord continue to bless & keep you, and may He hold you tightly each day.

    Good to see you back, CM. Little steps, one in front of the other. That'll do for now. Our loved ones wouldn't want us to grieve too hard.
