Yeah. Having been thru a marriage that didn’t work, I especially mourn the demise of any of those that do. I just can’t begin to imagine the sense of loss, it must be worse than the loss of limbs.

Anyway, we can but listen and cry with him.

Dear Backhoe, you have always been one of my very favorite freepers. My prayers for you and your dear wife, may you both find comfort and eternal happiness in the arms of God, always.

“For the soul there is never birth nor death. Nor, having once been, does the soul ever cease to be. The soul is unborn, eternal, ever-existing, undying and primeval. The soul does not die when the body dies.”

[melancholy]

I’m very sorry, backhoe.

Prayers for you and yours.

I am very sorry to hear it. I selfishly hope that my wife of 49 years will live longer than I do, because I can’t imagine anything tougher.

May her soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God rest in peace.

"I selfishly hope that my wife of 49 years will live longer than I do, because I can’t imagine anything tougher."

I feel the same way.

Backhoe, my sincere condolences over your heartbreaking loss. May God bless you and ease your pain.

backhoe - My sincere condolences and prayers are with you and your family and friends. God grant you support, succor, and strength to sustain you through your loss.

So very sorry for your loss.

When I lost my son, I read somewhere, and copied it. May it bring you some solace.

And if I go,
while you’re stil here ...
Know that I live on,
vibrating to a different measure
—behind a veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me,
so you must have faith.
I wait for the time when we can soar together again
—both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to its fullest and when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart
... I will be there.

[Smokin' Joe]

My condolences, FRiend. May God Bless you and keep you, and soothe your heart.
