Hi all, I’m back. Two weeks ago today my world fell apart when my hubby passed away. I have to give a big heartfelt thanks to all Tattlers for your beautiful messages of sympathy and words of support which, although they reduced me tears, were a great source of comfort to me. To think that none of us know each other personally and yet we are like one big family feeling each other’s joy and grief. Where else would you get this kind of support ……? You are really a fantastic group of people and a pleasure to be part of.
The funeral was last Friday and was a celebration of his life with many happy memories of Mr Wise being shared by his family and friends. He taught himself to play the guitar and loved singing ‘Puff the Magic Dragon’ to our children when they were young, and to anyone else who would listen! This became his ‘signature song’ and we had it played at the service - everyone was asked to join in, and they did …. It was wonderful, truly uplifting. I have to show you a pic. of the flowers which were on the coffin, entwined around his old guitar with ‘Puff’ sheet music. Again so beautiful, and so Mr Wise, he would have loved it.
Sorry this post is so long but, just to keep it OT, I am ready to face the antics of the Gruesomes once again and getting prepared for Thursday ….. the day to buckle up and enjoy the ride provided by Tom Bower.
Thanks for the new thread @Cassandra333 and @planetmirth for the brilliant title.
