    End of the Trail

    It's been a while since I have visited this forum and some of you know the reason is that my wife, Joyce, has been very ill since mid July and I have been spending a lot of time in hospitals. She experienced a lot of pain and misery over the last few months but when she finally passed a little while ago, she went peacefully while sound asleep. It was fully expected but the end was still a great shock since I loved her very much.

    In any event, I thought I would pass this on because I know that many of you had her on your prayer lists. I do appreciate the support that I have received from many of you.

    P.S. If you are interested in plans for any project that I post, just put some money in an envelope and mail it to me and I will keep it.

    Wolf,
    Everytime I hear a man who has lost his woman...it brings back so much. I lost my wife of 30 years - 8 years ago to breast cancer. It was the most difficult time...but I knew that she only wanted the best for me. It took some to hear her...but I was blessed with another most wonderful woman so I know she continues to watch over me. I know you will find your way through it all...just try to listen for Joyces guidance. I pray you find the peace that I have.

    Wolf,

    I am sorry for your loss and will continue to keep you in my prayers as you continue on. I am sure glad that you were there for her during her time of need and that she coul dexperience right up to the bitter parting, the love you had for her. She will be missed, but will be well cared for until the day you two will once again be together in god's presence.

    Peace and love be with you forever and always, my brother in wood.

    Take care, god bless,

    Kurt

    Hang in there during this difficult time. For me getting back into the shop was the best therapy. Most of the time I didn't want to, and, at times I couldn't see what I was doing but it helped to get my mind working on something else, at least for brief periods.

    Wolf -

    My condolences on your loss. Even though expected, it still does not make it any easier. The pain will lessen with time and fond memories will replace it, but in the meantime know that you and the rest of your family are in our prayers.

    Regards,
    Ted
