Carol, we are saddened at your loss. I hope weather conditions will be especially favorable in your area this season and that your efforts will be rewarded with beauty and serenity. Yuska

I have not corresponded with you but you have my sincere condolences. I lost my grandmother a few years ago and it was so hard. We gardened together when I was very young. I am most comforted when I am in the garden . I always think of her there. I feel that your gardening will be of comfort to you as well. May God speed his healing to you.

Hugs & Prayers,

Judy

Wow. It's hard to know what to say. You have my condolences and best wishes. I hope you find some consolation among the gardeners here and at home.

Sheila

Nancyjean...you have my heartfelt sympathy....I don't know what I would have done with out Dave's Garden and all the nice folks here when my DH passed away 3 years ago Christmas.

Love, hugs and prayers....Jo

Thinking of you, and your pain. Hope the good earth and warm sun comforts you as you work thru it, and grow the most wonderful garden as a result.

NancyJean, Loss is always hard. Thinking to throw yourself back into gardening is a good release. My heartfelt condolances.

Carol, I know from the caregivers forum that this was not unexpected, but I am sure that doesn't make it any easier to bear. Try to take comfort in the fact he no longer has to struggle for every breath of air, and he knows how much you loved him.

nancyjean.......Although words seem to say so little, I hope they help in some small way to ease the sense of loss that you're experiencing today. Hold fast to your memories, to all of the cherished moments of the past, to the blessings and the laughter, the joys and celebrations. They all add up to a treasure of fond yesterdays that you and your hubby shared and spent together. The special moments and memories in your life will never change. They will always be in your heart, today and forevermore.....Hugs

Carol...I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. (((HUGS)))

Nancyjean, you don't know me, I'm new to DG but I wanted to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. I will be praying for your comfort and peace. I can't imagine the burden of grief you must be carrying. I do know God does and I know he cares for you. If I were going through what you were going through I might be very angry with Him right now and I know that would be ok, He understands. I can't explain why HE does what he does but I know someday He will tell us and it will make sense then if not now. Take care of yourself and lean on friends and loved ones for strength and comfort during this painful time. I'm sure I speak for the folks here at DG when I say we're all here for you if you need to talk or cry or anything else. Take care and know that we're thinking about in your time of distress. Rhonda

Carol, would it be ok if I asked on the prayer forum for prayer for you? This is such a hard time - seems like a time when having DG's wonderful prayer people on the job would be a good idea.

Carol, our condolences. We're praying for you.

I cannot Thank all of you enough for all your kind words and prayers. They mean so very much right now. Gardeners are great folks. I was comforted by all of your words. My garden this year will be special as I haave now 2 angels watching over me, My DH and My Son we lost awhile back in an auto accident. Again God bless you all and my deepest graditude for your kind words. Carol (nancyjean)

Thank you for taking the step of sharing your sad news with us, so that you can feel all of our heartfelt prayers and warm wishes. I'm so glad that you also have gardening, in which to find solace. My very best wishes to you.

Carol,
I would like to offer my condolences as well. I apologize that I am just now seeing this. My Brother passed away on Feb 21st 2004, and if it wern't for my friends here on Dave's-Idon't know how I would have coped with it. My prayers are with you now as I am typing this and I will continue to pray for you to have the strenghth, courage and acceptance that you'll find as you make it through this very difficult time.

God Bless you and your Family,
Traci S
