Gerry, I miss this yesterday. August 9th is my son's birthday and I am so sorry that the same day that has brought me much joy, brings you sorry.
Years ago, my sister and her two small children were taken away from us, by a still unknown murderer - that was one day that I had such a hard time dealing with - then one day - I met my Rick and his birthday was that very same day - God had given me a new reason to celebrate that day - rather than think of that day in sorrow - so I did what I have had to learn to do - rejoice in the love of having my sister and niece and nephew in my life for the years that I did and let the day that they left this earth be a day to celebrate my love's special day.
I will be praying for you - on this day - each year - that you can let them go and not keep them tied to the day that God took them to be with Him.

thank you, dear friend!
Kim, thanks so much - life is what we make of it and I know that my sister & her two children would want me to be upset over the day they past.
Gerry, you are a dear friend and I hope I did upset you by sharing this.

gerry my thoughts are with you as you remember this sad day. When Jesus was on earth he performed miricles, some of which bought back dead loves ones. This was small
example of what will be done in the new system/paradise,
so rest assured that you will see your loved ones again in the resurrection.
The resurrection hope is another convincing proof of God’s interest in each individual. Jesus Christ said: “The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his [Jesus’] voice and come out.” (John 5:28, 29) It conveys the thought that the life record of the person who has died is remembered by God.
I too long to see my parents and loved ones.
Lots of Love Kerry

Gerry, here is a big hug! It saddens me to read this! But it does remind me that life can be cut short and you need to make the best of it with your love ones with the time you are given! My father passed away 3 years ago! I try to spend a summer month every year with my mother and sisters! Your the best!

I know how it must be for you gerry, I have lost both my mother & father & a husband but their deaths were not in such as you have had to suffer. Still I lost them. I always try to bring little things to my mind about them that they said or did, or things we did together, even to books I know they read . All of these are special, dear memories that I hold deep in my heart. It makes me feel close to them as I tell these things to my children so they want forget them. *

My love and prayers for you Gerry. I'm glad that you consider all of us as part of your family, and although they are gone, I imagine they are proud of what a lovely woman you are now.
Hugs for your also.

Gerry I'm glad you are at peace with the passing of your parents. I Thank the Lord everyday for the blessing of my parents. Dad is 81 and looks 65. hehehe...Poor mom is 76 and has a very hard time of it. But It is so wonderful to know that if anything happened, I would see them when it is my time. I'm so glad we have a hope in Jesus that gives us both peace and joy in our hearts, lives and minds. We don't know if our loved ones can see us, but it's nice to think they can as in angels that are sent to protect us. thank you for sharing this with your Cute Family. Hugs, Terre

I am so sorrt, it was and continues to be a traumatic event that can never be erased. But I am sure you have many memories that bring a smile to your face. I can see your parents looking so proud of the wonderful person you are.

The loss of someone we love and cherish is so difficult. I have lost many loved ones, what keeps me strong is my faith in the Promise that we shall all have eternal life through Christ Jesus!
On a day such as this embrace the fact that someday you shall be reunited with them and live throughout eternity with them!
Whenever I feel lonely and sad I read Revelations and my sadness is replaced with joy!
It is so hard for us to comprehend the "why" of God's decisions, but if you think about it you will see the blessings He gives.
My father passed away before my mother, she was so lonely and sad without him nothing and no one filled her void.
I honestly believe when two people pass together it is because God knows that is the way it has to be for them. My mom only had to live another year without my dad and then she passed.
I have lived many years without my husband. At the time all I wanted was to be gone too. Now I know that God in His infinite wisdom allowed me to stay so I could see our daughter be raised and the birth of our grandchildren. I thank Him for that, now.
There are days I long to join them, but I know that when He wants me He will call me.
God bless you and diminish your sadness.
