I received an email from Jim Taylor. He had just talked to Ken Olivier and found out Ken's wife, Connie, of 58 years passed away early this morning. The arrangements are pending.

Please keep Ken and his family in your prayers.

I had a wonderful birthday, Ronna. With it being a BIG birthday, my friends and family made a big deal over it. I am still celebrating, with a lunch after church on Sunday. It is my pleasure to keep our website going after all the work Jackie, my birthday buddy, put into it.

Thankyou for keeping this forum busy. So I can read once in a while, what's going on in Houston.

Last year the love of my life, Barbara died, but I was able to be besides her up to her last minute. When she stopped breathing it was so soft and light. She did not have to suffer any more.

It was such a hard time, ten years of parkinsons and it was such a good time, being able to help her and to be besides her.

As a psycologist I had to do with people, suffering from such losses, so many times. And I could help. But now, me suffering, it is so hard to go every step, every day. All I know, does not really help me.

Greetings from Berlin and it's cold over here, but spring is coming.

Hi Bernd , I'm so sorry for your loss. I understand your pain after loosing your lovely wife. My dear husband John and I married on June 27th , 1964. I lost him on May 11, 2022 . Dementia is known as the long goodbye , and it was. They say time heals , and it does to some extent. There is a song I listen from time to time called " I Never Left You " by John F. Conner. It brings me comfort. Take care of yourself , and just know , you will see her again someday.

Bernd, so extremely sorry you've lost your lifemate. I understand your being glad you could be her caregiver through her difficult days - that's a gift and an honor. Those of us who have lost our mates feel your pain and grief. Each of us handles our hurt and healing in different ways, but I will be praying The Lord will comfort you, give you peace as time passes and heal your broken heart.

March 17 at 3:15pm my cousin, Mary Lee Vaughan Graham, passed away. I was grateful to have been with her that morning and her son and his wife were there playing beach sounds when she passed on. Mary absolutely loved the beach. She had been dealing with dementia for a few years and started living in a care home last December. Mary and her 3 sisters were my best friends and playmates in our younger years. Please pray for her son, Jeff, his wife Mel and her remaining older sister, Peggy, as they adjust to life without Mary.

Jimmie Lee, I am so sorry to hear about Mary passing away. After all these years we still would wish each other their Birthday on this site. I can still remember going roller skating with her. We used to commute to work with a stop for her favorite Dr. Pepper ! I will miss her dearly.

Bernd, so sorry to hear of the loss of your wife. It is so difficult to let go after so many years and I hope all the beautiful memories the two of you created help you heal at this time.

Jimmie Lee, I'm really sorry to hear about Mary's passing. I will always remember her as one of the sweetest people in our class. I was not aware you were cousins, but, on reflection, it makes perfect sense. That sweetness you both have and had must be a family trait. I wasn't aware that Mary had dementia and it makes me sad that she, and the family, suffered from that terrible disease. My prayers and love to you and your family.
