My heart goes out to you, your family, and anyone who knew and loved your wife. If you ever need an ear, don’t hesitate. TellMeI’mNotCrazy expressed very well what I feel.

Thanks so much guys. I’m at home right now. It’s quiet and nobody here, so I thought I’d check in for a minute. Just got back from the funeral home to make arrangements. Not an easy thing to say the least. I thought I might make her a website and post some pictures and say a few words. She really was an amazing person who will be missed by many. Would it be okay with y’all if I put a link to her memory on this thread? I thought you’d like to kinda meet this incredible person whose life touched so many. Reminds me of our beloved **Persephone** , God rest her soul. Perhaps the two will meet in another existence. **hlanelee** buddy…my heart’s out to you. I’m very sorry for your loss. Be strong and remember the good times and thank God we had them as long as we did. I’m a better man because of Therese, that is a fact. I’ll be in touch later, take care all and thanks again. I wish there was a smiley for what’s inside right now. A heart, perhaps. 🙂 ---

I’ve had a whole bunch of things typed in, and they all sounded trite and silly; so I deleted them. Suffice it to say: You, your wife, and your family are in my thoughts.
