This was difficult for me to log on and reply, but it is probably good for both of us. I lost my husband of 33 years last July and he was a wonderful man as well. They are probably getting along swell on the other side, being Christians and Bush fans too. What is so hard is that after the shock starts to wear off (took months for me), then the sense of loss continues on as you experience things without him for the first time (like going to social functions alone, hearing a familiar song, memories upon memories that come from simple little incidents of everyday life.) It is so hard, but they are honored when we face life head on without them and try to be a blessing with the time we are given. God keep you in His comforting arms. I use to go by 4truth...remember me?

Yes, I do remember you..your name was so close to mine. I guess you can really relate to what I am feeling because you are still feeling a deep sense of loss. Mine is just newer. I am in a place right now where I feel like I can't go anywhere because EVERYWHERE reminds me of Jerry. We did almost everything together so I will have to force myself to go places alone...but not yet. He died three nights ago and I can't handle anything at the moment. I should try to go to sleep..even that is hard. I pray that you will feel better soon and thank you so much for writing what I know was a difficult post. It means a lot to me.
