I lost my wife Linda four years ago in a similar manner so I KNOW what you are going through and I also realize there is nothing anyone can say to ease your overpowering grief.

Your whole life is changed now and you must go on the best you can and I hope you consider counseling (PM me if you need any guidance). This will alleviate the pain that you will experience as you go through the grieving process.

All your MM friends are here if needed. Stay strong.

Will be praying for you on the loss of your wife Linda. I lost my wife 4yrs ago, and know what you are going through. But I was reminded that as I miss my wife she is not lost, and that we know, and so does God, exactly where she is, and will see them again. As the Book say in I Thessalonians 4:13-18

Take courage in this. Ed

I normally don't poke my head into the lounge, but today I thought I'd come in and maybe find something funny to read. How sad to read this. This is just terrible. Hack, I'm so terribly sorry for your loss. I hope you will stay in touch with us here, your Marauder family, but of course will understand if you're away for a while. I don't feel like any of us are really strangers any more, and if there's anything we can help with then I for one would be happy to do so.

I was stunned when I talked with Paul yesterday about Linda's passing away. I was fortunate enough to have met her on more than a few occasions over the last year and a half after meeting Paul in person thanks to car shows and this forum. Sparkling personality and a joy to share dinner with or kick back at a car show on a nice summer day.
As I said yesterday Paul, if there is anything Tracy or I can do since we live so closeby, please call and let us know. I am truly at a loss for words, so I won't try.

We both understand the pain that you are going through as we both lost our partners a few years ago. Time will ease the pain but the memories will always be there. God Bless You and Your Family, and as many others have said if there is anything that we can do to help please let us know.

Hello Paul

There is not much I can say that hasn't already been expressed.

You can feel somewhat comforted in the fact that you and the family were with Linda to the end. I'm sure she's comforted by this as well.
The thought of her passing is something you've had some time to deal with, but her loss now a reality. I feel sad for you at this painful time, and you are in my thoughts and prayers.
