To my casebook friends

[DVV]

I don't expect any reply to that post.
But I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to my casebook friends who have prayed or sent good thoughts to my wife these past two years.
Lydia has passed away, but she is still my wife forever, half of my soul.
Thank you so much for your support, Bunny, Carol, Cris, Ally, Ben, Dave, and others.
God bless you.

[Robert]

David, what can I say?

I am so sorry!

[Errata]

May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May the Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
May the Lord lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.

[Ally]

I am truly sorry for your loss. Wish there was something else to say except our thoughts are with you during this time.

[DVV]

Many thanks, Ally, Errata, Robert.
I could say "that's life", and of course it is, but life will never taste the same to me.
Still, Fleming is the ripper.
See you.

[Rubyretro]

I am so sorry David. My thoughts are with you.

[Ginger]

I'm terribly sorry.

[Monty]

So sorry to read this Dave,

Thoughts are yours.

Oh, David, my heart is breaking for you! I'll continue to pray for Lydia and for you.

Lydia is with Linda now.

David, I'm going to share a very special poem with you. My Mother and Father were soul-mates. After they had 40 years of happiness together we lost her to cancer. My poor Father missed her every minute of every day for the rest of his life.

My Dad wasn't the arty type; just the opposite. He was an Aerospace Engineer & Rocket specialist. My Mom was the arty type. But my grieving Dad made one of the most romantic gestures I have ever seen. He found this beautiful poem somewhere, went out and bought art paper that looks like antique gray marble, painstakingly typed the poem onto the marbled paper, and then had it laminated in clear plastic. I have it here beside me right now. It's one of my most cherished possessions. When my Dad passed away I had it printed on the back of his Mass cards.


Ascension

And if I go,
while you're still here...
Know that I live on,
vibrating to a different measure
-behind a thin 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 the fullest.
And when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart
...I will be there.



Love and God bless,
Bunny

Every good wish always

David, I know its been a long ordeal for you and Lydia. That it has strengthened the love you have for each other is a living testament to the bond and devotion you both have shared as one. And... as you've already proclaimed, that true love and devotion is everlasting. You two are special people.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Lydia my friend.

[Magpie]

I'm deeply saddened by this news.
Please accept my most heartfelt condolences.

[Carol]

Dear David,

I am so, so sorry that your wife has passed away. I had dared to hope that she would go from strength to strength.

I am praying for you. I am thinking of you. I am crying right now.

With love to you, David,
from Carol
