Well said Golf Foxtrot
Gilly

I offer you this poem in good faith

It was read out at my Wife's funeral by my Brother in Law to the congretation. It may be the thought of your friend, I have no idea but I hope that you might find it comforting in your grief.

When I come to the end of the road,
And the sun has set for me,
I want no tears in a gloom-filled room.
Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little, but not too much,
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that once we shared,
Miss me, but let me go.

This is a journey we all must take
And each must take alone;
It’s all a part of God’s perfect plan
A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends that we know.
Bury your sorrows in doing good,
Miss me, but let me go.

Sincerely
Mike Dennis

Gilly,
IS THERE ANY SPECIAL REASON WHY YOU NEVER EAD IT OUT YOURSELF MATE ?

YES
The fact that we had been married for 41 years and never been apart meant I was destroyed mentally.
My Bro in Law isd a Brigadier and in this case used topublic speaking as I am BUT I asked him to do it even though he is a Pongo and outranks an ex hairy arsed ERK rolling on the floor laughing

Anothet fact - She died of a massive stroke after 11 days with no communication remaining at 6 GCS at admission which dropped to below 3 on the 7th day and she had the very best treatment from ALL the NHS staff given to her and us.
Some of the staff even came to the funeral along with about 80 DSS staff (she was Gestapo for 38 years) and I was so overwhelmed.

BUT life has to move on

cheers
Mike
