The websites... well, it's business to them and as someone else noted, and beautifully, they are piranhas, and there is not humanity involved, just computers spitting out garbage in hopes of collecting money.<br /><br />Prayers and hopes for an ease in your pain is all good people can offer, but even from far away and people who are virtual strangers, those blessings are sincere.<br /><br />Be well, and I hope there is still something in each day that can make your smile, however briefly.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />DenyséDenysé Bridgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02275440875115096018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7630286569532684323.post-7644780751675702902009-11-04T10:28:56.280-06:002009-11-04T10:28:56.280-06:00Charlotte,

I could only hope to have a wonderful friend, lover, and soul mate for half the amount of time you’ve shared with yours, and I know I would feel as devastated.<br /><br />I don't understand the men in your church, and if I was there I would kick them in the knee for you (I try to control violence at some level). The sites are piranhas, need I say more? <br /><br />Mourn and I'll mourn with you. I'll pray for you and yours and hope the men around you find the decency to give you peace while you adjust and learn to live again.<br /><br />Scandalous MinxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7630286569532684323.post-49109045469246842692009-08-13T14:52:47.424-05:002009-08-13T14:52:47.424-05:00That's cold.

I am deeply sorry.<br /><br />Spam is unwanted, untimely, and inaccurate. I keep getting suggestions for penile enhancement on my personal email, and it clearly belongs to a FEMALE. What are they trying to say?<br /><br />After 43 years I can't imagine what the loss must be like. I pray the best for you.Stephanie, PQWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07829560196963801967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7630286569532684323.post-34318998810627150772009-06-25T16:51:09.433-05:002009-06-25T16:51:09.433-05:00This is a beautiful post and a beautiful photo.

During the mid-nineties there were such a string of awful storms through Oklahoma and Kansas, including one that killed 5 people not 2 miles from our home.

I asked the priest who anointed Tom to use it just once and then I had it sent to a missionary, a new priest just starting out in Africa. I have pictures of the chalice and the Mass that I'll be putting up one of these days.Charlee Compohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11313728801844090299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7630286569532684323.post-36337644435720779942009-06-15T12:59:47.532-05:002009-06-15T12:59:47.532-05:00Thanks for the love letter to your husband.

Like your husband, Charlotte, he encouraged me through the dark days of rejections.<br /><br />I scattered Bill's ashes in our garden, his wish, and am taking a little envelope of his ashes to Bridal Veil, Oregon, where we shall celebrate his life with our dear friends, The Franciscan Sisters of The Eucharist.<br /><br />Stay the course, Charlotte.

He helped build over a dozen Habitat for Humanity houses and ran the local blood drive for twelve years, had given over ten gallons of blood, himself. He was a Red Cross Disaster worker and ran one of the shelters in Mississippi after Katrina.
