Loss
My beloved father passed away a little over two weeks ago, at the age of 89. I am very sad but holding on.
At the funeral service, the rabbi said that we are not meant to understand this, that the mystery of life and death is beyond us. That is very much how I feel.

Oh dear friend! I'm so so sorry. :(
I've been wondering how you've been doing. Thanks for letting us know. I wish I could be closer or that there was something I could do. My heart goes out to you right now through this computer and this comment. I'll be thinking of you.
Oh, Sarah, I'm so sorry.
I'm very sorry.
Dear Lilian, Susan, and Anonymous (Joy?), thank you so much for your messages. It is comforting to hear from you.
This is hard.

So sad to hear. I lost my mom last year. I see you posted this a couple weeks back - I don't check blogs very often anymore. Hope you are doing alright.
FA, Clowncar: Thank you both for writing. It has been a sad time for me, but I am holding on. Some days I feel incredibly weighed down, other days lighter.
I am so sorry. Hugs and deepest sympathy to you.
Jodi: Gratefully accepted--thank you.
Sarah, I just read this and so sorry about your father. I remember your stories of about him fondly.
This is Joy (Mary Ann) from Ms. Flamingo... haven't written there in two years... I haven't been around the blog-sphere lately but I've thought of you often.
Wishing you the best,
Mary Ann aka Joy
MaryAnn, thank you for writing. It helps to hear from people. And I hope you are doing well.
