Condolences from the Simpsons mate.

Once you're sorted out give us a shout mate, if you fancy it, there's a spare room up here, you can come visit and stay for a few days, enjoy Speyside in the summertime and a bit of company.
You can bring Hudders with you if you like!

You're a decent bloke Russ, take care of yourself and hopefully we'll see you soon.

Jesus Russ.....I'm so sorry.

Just got in from work having been to my neighbour Ann's funeral today.

I'm choked for you, mate.

RIP Mel.

... it's occurred to me that I've spent the whole day talking money although necessary I just felt very uncomfortable doing it......is this really what mourning is all about!

No it isn't. It's just a neccesity due to the way we have life and society set up.

When my father passed away last year two of my sisters, who have power of attorney, spent a long, long time trying to sort out my parents finances. It needed to be sorted as my mother is in care due to her alzheimer's.

As others have said we're here to help. If you need to get away (if you can choose between the many offers already given), then hop on the ferry and come over to Galway. It might not even rain.

Just read this. I would like to say something meaningfull and helpfull, but like all the others who have posted, all I can say is my deepest condolences and symphathies.
I think it takes a real hero to nurse some they love through their last days. You will allways know how much that devotion will have meant to your wife and you should be proud to know that.

Such a tough time, the clinical nature of the finance and the arrangements.

Spend time with family and friends and remember, talk, laugh and cry.

Thoughts and prayers with you and the family.

Heroes are not the all-action tough guys from the movies but the people who face adversity and quietly and stoically cope with it, as you have done.

Sorry for your loss, but in many ways glad you now have the chance to build a new life on the back of all the great memories you have of the best of those 30 years.

I know it is a cliche but everyday is the first day of the rest of your life.

Oh my goodness! Russ! Had no idea all this was going on in your life. You have my deepest sympathy and condolences.

What more can I say, but to echo what others have already said and that I too will be thinking of you.

Hi Russ,

So sorry to hear this. I didn't even know anything was wrong. May I offer you my sincere condolences to you and your family for your loss.

My grandad suffered with the big C for a long time and the last three weeks of his life he was just drugged to the hilt and wasn't even aware of anything. It was a kind of relief after he passed away that the pain had finally stopped and he was at peace. Take comfort in the good times and take time to grieve. Then maybe get out on the bike for a long trip! All the best mate.
