I do sympathize...I lost my sister in April, though we knew it would happen at some point. But your loss is so sudden!
I am so sorry to read about this.
And Jazzcat is right - the staff at the funeral home are a wealth of information. They can either help directly, or send you to the right place, or both. They may even have some ideas for your niece.
Hugs and prayers to all of you
I am so sorry for your loss. :(
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I lost my younger brother very suddendly a year ago last week, so I know a lot of what you are feeling. My thoughts are with you.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss.
Thank you for being caring and taking in your niece and a new furbaby.
Thank you so much everyone, you don't know what it means to come here and read all these kind words.
My brothers church has been amazing, actually he was going to 2 churches, sort of transitioning to a new church for their singles club. They came over last night and 10 of them helped me clean that house, it is in tip top shape now, even the minister was vacuuming. They all said how much they loved my brother, he played the base in both churches and fixed anyones appliances as needed no charge.
My neice is staying with the ministers family since it is right down the street from her house and everyone is stopping by.
Update on "potter", his dogs name is harry and the cat is potter...I can't stand that name for some reason but I have tried using it, he doesn't come to the name anyway. The kitty is actually a boy with underdeveloped genetals, my neice wasn't sure of vaccinations. I will call my brothers best friend he may have some veterinary info. He does have a runny eye that my neice says he always has had that I want to get looked at.
My sister helped with the buriel expenses so that helped a lot.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I am really sorry to hear about your brother. I can't imagine the pain you are going through right now and how your world has turned around..
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
You have a heart of gold to be taking in your niece and animals.
-hugs-
I am so sorry for your loss. I know you must miss him very very very much.
I know how your niece is feeling, I'm 22 as well and my mom passed away last October and my dad passed away on July 15th due to injuries from a car accident he had on the 11th. I haven't said much about it here, it just hurts me so bad because loosing my dad has also opened the wound back up from loosing my momma. I miss them both so bad. My mom had cancer and she was only 64, my dad was only 65.
I just hope your niece is ok and I know everyone will be helping her, I'll be praying for her and the family. I'm so glad to hear that the house is cleaned for her, that's wonderful, my dad's church family were also so amazing and kind to me. It's great you have them there for you guys.
Dappledoxie, I am so sorry about your parents, my heart goes out to you. It was hard losing my parents at 40. Makes you feel kind of empty doesn't it? I can't imagine at your age. I know my niece is scared and I just keep telling her I will protect her and she won't be alone.
I'm so sorry for your loss! :( The kitty is so cute maybe he can help you through this sad time. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
(((Hugs)))
sorry for your loss
Thank you, yeah it does, I feel like a shell of who I was or something lately. Everything seems so different, with my mom, I lived with her and it was hard to come home with her not there. It's hitting me a lot more with my dad because everytime the phone rings I think it's him, or when I check the answering machine I feel like he'll be there.Quote:

As for the pets, I love the names, **especially** Potter! It's so unique. Maybe not when teamed with Harry, but, still. ;) It sounds like Potter's really settled in, he's beautiful. I hope Harry's doing good, too.
I'll be thinking of you all.
Thanks everyone. I talked to my brothers best friend last night. Harry is doing fine and is due for his annual vet appt. so his friend said he would take care of that.
We are just taking things one day at a time.
