On A Sad Note

Hi everyone,  I don't usually post much on my blog in the way of personal matters, but I often get emails asking how my family is doing since you know that I have been going back and forth to visit them.  I thought that I should let you know that I got the call last night that my Dad had passed away quietly in his sleep.  It was not unexpected as his health had been steadily deteriorating since I was there during the summer.  I did get to spend some good quality time with him and my Mom at Thanksgiving and I am so grateful for that gift. He was an amazing man and I may post something else at a later date about him, but it is still too raw right now.  He will be so missed.
  I had already scheduled several daily blog posts for the week and they will go forward.  I do know that we have reached our goal for the blog candy draw and I need to draw a winner for the comments game too.  I am going to have a quiet weekend for happy reflection and some more tears, I am sure, and I will sort all of that out on Monday afternoon.  Sue x

Soo sorry to hear this Sue, and I know, how you feel right now. I´ve just got home from my dad thios moment, where we were all gathered as it´s 4 years today, since we lost my mum to cancer, so it was pretty much the same back then. I´m sooo glad, that you got this time with your dad before he passed away, and I can promisse you, things will get much easier soon, but till then, you just do what you need to do and don´t worry about anything else, and the prizes is the least problem you need to worry about, as we´ll all be here, when you feel better and up to things again, and we´ll also be here if you just need to get something of your chest. And as I said, I for one know exactly how you feel, so just take some me time now and forget about anything else okay+ Take care hun.

Hi Sue, when you lose a loved one, you reflect a lot and re-arrange your thoughts. It becomes very clear what is important in life - family. May the God of all comfort wrap his loving arms around you right now and give you His peace.

My dearest Sue - I am so so sorry to hear this. My poor husband has been in hospital for the past five weeks very ill and I know how difficult it is to have a family member in very poor health because you are always afraid for them. May God help you and your family through this sad period and give you strength. You are in my thoughts and prayers and I am sure everyone feels the same because you are like a dear friend to us. Sending you lots of love

Sue Parish said...

Oh Sue, I'm so sorry - but how wonderful that you got to see him one last time. I wonder if he hung on especially to see you before he had to go. My Dad rang me very unexpectedly for a chat one evening, (he hardly ever used the phone), and my Mum told me later he had put his arms round her as she stood at the kitchen sink and thanked her for their marriage of over 60 years. Neither of us realised he was saying goodbye and it was very hard at first, but now we can speak about him without tears and we share all the happy memories instead. My love to you and your Mum and family, my heart goes out to you all. Sue x

Vee Cassidy said...

Dear Sue
I am very sorry for your loss and you have my sympathies at this sad time. I am so glad you made it home for Thanksgiving to have some time together; I can remember how happy you were that your dad had got out of hospital and you wanted to do a happy dance at the thought of getting home. Your mother will have been glad of that time too, I am sure. Even if a death is not entirely unexpected does not mean you feel the loss any less so do allow yourself time to grieve and I hope you can turn to the happy memories soon.
You give us all so much pleasure that you must know we are all thinking about you. That is not just because of your amazing talent; it is because you are a lovely person and it shines right through when you are on TV.
With many kind thoughts and much love, Vee Cassidy xx

fluffycat said...

Sue, so very sorry to hear your news, you have my sympathies. Although it is some years since I lost my Dad I still treasure the fact that I was with him just the day before he died. Your Thanksgiving memories will help you through this very sad time.

Sending my love and prayers to you and your family.
