132goals1958 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 My heart goes out to you Bob as I know only too well what you are going through. Whilst life will never be the same we will always treasure the memories and it is some comfort albeit small that you have the support of family and friends. My thoughts are with you.

J.T.F.Robertson Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Only just saw this, Bob. My heart goes out to you and if it's any solace (which I doubt) Esther did not have a prolonged period of suffering. Monica and I send our love.

JFK-1 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 On 02/08/2020 at 11:07, Sharpie said: A simple phone call at 8.00am this morning brought the message that sixty years of marriage, sixty two years of love had come to an end. Its a strange feeling, sadness at the loss, but a sense of relief that the suffering is gone, and if the belief that on the time of death one goes to a place where all the passed relatives will be, Esther will now be with our beloved daughter Deborah. I went to the hospice gave her a loving hug and said goodbye, until we meet again, hopefully in a better world. Sorry to hear of your loss. No words of mine could alleviate your pain at this time. But 62 years of love didn't come to an end. That will always be within you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
