I lost my mom today, different hurt, it's been coming on for months now so was expected, but what a void is left. Wasn't even gonna look here today, but checkng email glanced and saw this and wanted to say how truly sorry I am for you.

I lost my first serious love 27 years ago when I was engaged at 20. She was killed in a car wreck. I am blessed with a wonderful wife now and family, but she still has her lil part in my heart. It was my mom that pulled me through that.

It's a terrible pain...again, I am truly sorry

My condolences Vendor and Armistead.

Vendor stay strong and know she will always be with you.

Armistead I know just how you feel, lost my father some time ago under the same circumstances and my mother is 97, although she is going strong right now it is only a matter of time.

My prayers are with you both.

Magic

Armistead -

My thoughts are with you, mate. I know it's hard, even when it is expected. Go easy on yourself for the next few weeks - believe it or not, it'll sneak up on you when you least expect it - it did for me after I lost my mother in November.

Sorry for your loss Growler, sure it's still fresh.

I wish you the best Vendor, you're a good fellow. I can't imagine the pain of such loss, that's still so young. I hope your OK, as you know, just no words.

Gerald, I wish only the best for your in this time of crisis and the comfort of memories spent with one you loved so dearly.

Armistead, I can understand your pain. I lost my mother and father at a relatively early age.

Vendor my friend, I'm back online now, I can see by this thread that you are really missing Marie, quite understandable, hope that the members here at Subsim are giving you some relief from the pain you are going through, your in our (wife and I) thoughts and prayers and hope you are feeling better.
Cheers.

Gerald,

Sorry to hear about this. My condolences. I don't know where I would be without mine.

Have a hug and a beer on me.
