sad news that Melissa's Mum passed away today of a sudden and totally unexpected heart attack. For those of you who don't know, Melissa is my new SIL. She and my brother only married in January and he hadn't even met Melissa's Mum yet, it was planned for this Christmas.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

On behalf of Melissa, Thank you all so much for your condolences. More disappointing news, they can't get a flight to China in time for her Mum's funeral. I am so sad for Melissa, this is a terible way to start her new life in Australia and she has no other family or friends here other than my brother, Ray and me.
I will show her all your messages and hope she can feel the love and support from my wonderful Cute family.
Thank you all so much,
Hugs n roses and much love to all, Meganne

Having just been to a viewing and services for my dear Uncle - I do understand how you are feeling - keep you heart and soul in the knowledge that it will just be a wink of the eye in God's time - when you are united with them and this is just the stage of life - that they are in - I love you lady.

I'm sorry for your loss...a friend has an anniversary today also...it was 33 yrs ago that his mother was killed crossing the street..by a drunk driver... he was 10 yrs old at the time.... Has Very Bitter feelings!! Just remember we will all meet again in Heaven:)

you both are in my prayers.......life is to short..........been there as well as all of us have.

Meg & Melissa, you are both in my prayers. Meg, you can relate to Melissa's loss & I am sure she will be glad to have someone dear to her that truely understands. God be with your families.

You are so right. We do take life for granted. I feel so sorry for Melissa, and for your brother. What a hard trip. We will be praying for them and for you. May the Lord comfort you in such a time as this.

My dear sweet mom passed away years ago, and way too young. I still miss her a lot.

hugs to you.

Meg, You just never know from one day to the next what is going to happen. She was a young person to have a heart Attack so It was her time to go be with the Lord. It really makes you stop and think. I hope that you are coping alright and can be a comfort to your brother and SIL. I am sure that she is really hurting at this time! At least she has you to help at this time. My heart and prayers go out to your family at this time. I am sure that with you in the family, with all your wisdom, it will make it some easier for her. You always know what to say and do in times like these. You have so much compassion for those in need of it. She is very lucky to have you as a SIL. May the Lord bless you and keep you well on your journey to complete wellness also. You can do this because you are such a good and caring soul. The Lord is watching over you! We all love you and expect nothing but good things to happen to you for the rest of your long long life! Love ya! Linda

My prayers are with you and the family for traveling mercies and for strength to endure the grief and loss.

I'm so sorry. My mother has been gone 22 years and I still miss her terribly. How awful for Melissa, that she didn't get to say goodbye. It is very hard to get to the place you can move on after a sudden death.I pray for peace over you all.;)

Meg, so true are your words. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your brother and sister in law. Love to you. Prayers and many of God's blessings, Libbie

Oh Meg... such a sobering statement. We do take life for granted, don't we? I pray comfort for you today as well as for Melissa. It's so hard losing a loved one! xoxo teri

Meganne, I'm so sorry! I hope that the lord is with you today to help you through your sadness. I feel the same way when I remember my favorite Aunt's passing.

Meganne, my Mom has been gone over 20 years, and I still miss her, she left us way too young, only 65. We never know from day to day, that's why THIS day is so important. Tell someone you love them NOW, don't wait for a special occasion, or till you're not so busy. I'm so very sorry for Melissa and your brother, Meggie. Isn't it funny, your job won't give you the time off to do something important like meet when you're alive, but they'll give you leave to go to a funeral. The world is crazy, I hope they can manage all right, and shared grief will be grief lessened. Big hugs, much love to you all, Marji

I will keep all of you in my prayers. God Bless and love to all Ronny

Meganne, for me it is still to soon to feel any other feelings, my mom passed away on the 15th July , two weeks ago, but now I can also tel that life is to short for everything that yous still want to do, and we do take life for granted. My condolences with Melissa's and the family. Love Marie

Gosh Meganne, I so so miss my Mom too ...how sad for Melissa .... she must be in shock over this. It probably makes your remembering your Mum ... feel ever more acute. Bless Melissa and her family ... I imagine her heart is pain. Hugs, Laura

Dear Meganne, it is so good to have memories. Very sorry to hear about Melissa's mother. Please pass her my condolences with the loss of her mother. Sometimes the world seems to be small but when somthing like this happens it is still much to far away. You, Ray, your brother and Melissa will be in my thoughts. Hugs

I am so sorry to hear your sad news. Do we ever stop missing our mums? Specially when there's something wrong, physically or in times of sorrow, it would be so nice to be able to talk to your mum. This must be hard on your SiL and your brother.
And yes, until there's death around us, we take life for granted. I am at the age where having a parent is almost a rarity, and several of my friends and neighbours are having fatal illnesses, but even so, you expect people to live and it's a shock when one dies.
Wishing you all the best, hugs and blessings, Martine

So very sorry Meg, for sure life is way too short for some, don't waste a day none of us knows how long each of us will be here to enjoy each and every minute with those we love...hugs and prayers Glenda x0x0x0x

You are in my thoughts and prayers!! Hugs
