Martha, sorry to hear of your loss. When you have been involved with the taking care of it is hard to all of a sudden not have that. I think of my daddy every day and he has been gone since 1969, also my mom. You have the memories to smile and laugh about the good times. It is a hard time. Hope god can help carry you through this. Louise

Thank you Louise and all who thought about me. I told my husband last night that my life has changed so abruptly since Saturday evening. I am still sort of in limbo. There is so much waiting for me to take care of......insurances to file on....business to take care of at the bank, etc....thank you cards to fill out and mail.....dishes to return to those who provided food for our huge family (37 of us) and other things that I've not even thought about yet. My mother has moved in with me and at some point we are going to have to make adjustments to our house to accommodate her needs. Then there's her house that will have to have attention at some point. Eventually I'll get it done but I'm not in a hurry. I do have so many memories and they will keep me going. God is carrying me through this. Thank you that you all are here for me. :-) Martha ----- Original Message ----- From: Louise Valine <antique1931@saber.net> To: memory-lane@rootsweb.com Sent: Sun, 02 Feb 2014 12:13:03 -0500 (EST) Subject: [ML] My sweet daddy Martha, sorry to hear of your loss.
