Dear Linda,

We offer our sincere condolences for your untimely loss of your husband. Your grief may
ebb and flow. It has been said each of us has
this deep well inside of us that can be filled
to the brim with grief. Everytime we cry,
we empy some of the well. There will always
be wondeful memories you cherish, then
the well seems to fill to it's brim again.
Allow yourself to remember and to mourn,
it's part of your healing. Grief is a continuing
journing. Jesus Christ promised us by means
of his rasom sacrifice that he will resurrect
your husband. (John 5:28,29). According
to Isaiah 61:2 God is comforting the mourning.
Take comfort in knowing you have the hope of
seeing your husband again.

Sincerely,

ON WEEKENDS HE WOULD ONLY WANT SOMETHING IF HE SEES ME EATING. I WOULD ASK HIM DO YOU WANT A ENGLISH MUFFIN HE WOULD SAY NO,. BUT WHEN HE SEEN THAT IT WAS DONE HE DECEIDED TO HAVE ONE AND SAY THANKS HONEY HOW DID YOU KNOW I WANTED ON THEN IT WOULD BE CAN I HAVE ANOTHER ONE FOR LUNCH IF I HAD A BLT I WOULD ASK HIM IF HE WANTED ONE AND YOU CAN GUESS WHAT THE ANSWER WAS BUT WHEN HE SEEN ME EATING AND I WENT TO THE RESTROOM WHEN I CAME BACK IT WAS GONE HE WOULD SAY IT WAS GOOD

Dear Linda,
Loni and I had many missunderstandings, but one of us was always right. It was usually Loni that was right. I would talk to much while Loni was trying to read her bible and she would go into the bathroom to read in slience. I would feel bad about that. Loni knew i couldn't shut up long enough. When she was done she would come back out and be smiling at me with that look; what am I going to do with you !
And that would make me feel better. We knew enough about each other that those little things didn't matter all that much.

Dear Linda,

I want to express my condolences to you due to the loss of your husband. Although the emptiness left behind after losing a loved one never fully disappears, you could find comfort in knowing that God wants to bring them back to life and make all suffering go away.

The Bible holds many promises for the future that assure us that our loved ones will be with us once again and very soon. Job was sure of this when he said: “If an able-bodied man dies can he live again? All the days of my compulsory service I shall wait, until my relief comes. You will call, and I myself shall answer you. For the work of your hands you will have a yearning.” Yes, just as Job mentioned, Jehovah God has a deep desire to resurrect all of those who have lost their lives. He has empowered his Son, Jesus Christ, to do this in the near future.

When Jesus was here on earth he promised: “For just as the Father raises the dead up and makes them alive, so the Son also makes those alive whom he wants to. Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” (John 5: 21, 28, 29) Linda, you can be sure that your husband will be amongst the ones who will hear Jesus’ voice and comes back to life. When that happens you will both be able to put all the pain and suffering behind you. Revelation 21: 4 promises: “And he [referring to God] will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

I truly hope you can find comfort in these words and scriptures and that they help you go on while you wait to see your husband again.

Sincerely,

Ana

linda,my name is Debbie,,,i hate the nights too.. i start feeling very low around 4:00 and its a struggle to keep from losing it on the way home from work,,,,,one little thing can send me into a whirlwind of tears and pain...why does it have to hurt so bad,,,when we marry we really do become one,,,,and a part of us is missing...My God it hurts...its been 35 days since my Byron and I breathed together. I miss him so much....I just want to feel better...

I will be thinking of you, Linda. Douglas died one week after our 26th anniversary (July 2009) so July will be most difficult for me. Our anniversary and his death plus June 28th will be his birthday. We were going to renew our vows as well. This past weekend I found our wedding album and inside was a copy of our vows (we wrote our own). I will read them out loud on July 9th -- and probably cry. Thank goodness for Ben & Jerry's!! Take care and know you are in my thoughts.
