A thread for Pam and her family.

[RICHARD]

I hope you will post some thoughts for Pam and her family.
She too lost her mother last week. It's a tough thing. All the cliches are appropriate at a time like this.

As much as you know it one day will happen, you are never prepared.
You do pray for the lord to ease them into his arms and onto peace.
And on and on....

Pam,

My heart and thoughts are with you and your family. There are times when you stop and wonder if you are the only person on the planet with a heavy heart.

Hearts are never to be heavy, broken or empty spaces. They are places filled with love and hope and all the things that make a person happy-especially with thoughts of the people you love and keep there.

The next things we will have in common should be fun, happy and full of smiles.


We deserve it!

Thought and prayers are with Pam and her family during this time of sadness.

Pam, I'm so sorry to hear you have lost your mother. I hope you will remember the good times, and know that she is at peace now.

My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

(((hugs)))

Pam, at times like this, words seem so ineffectual but it's all we've got since we're so many miles away. I hope that you can take comfort in knowing that you have a big collective (((HUG))) from all your PT family. Losing our mom is comparable to no other loss. For a while after my mom died, I was angry because the world didn't stop. Then later I was comforted w/memories after the shock wore off. Please know that prayers are going up for you and Richard and all my PT family every day.

I'm so sorry about your mom. Wasn't she a member here? Maybe she's having tea with Richard's mom. {{Hugs}}

[Barbara]

Oh Pam, I am so sorry. Losing my mom last year is still so close to me. I know we both are no spring chicken- but becoming an orphan is a tough thing. I am glad your family can bear this loss together.

[KYS]

OH! Pam I am so sorry!
This is not a good month.
Sending hugs and Prayers your way.
(((HUGS)))

[Pam]

Thank you everybody. I am doing pretty good although on Wednesday I was thinking to myself "I have nowhere to go tomorrow" (since I always visited Mom on Thursdays) and the tears came out of nowhere. My tears are for me and not her. As the pastor said at her funeral, "if we were were to ask her to come back she would say "No Thank You!" I rest in that!

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

I'm so sorry for you & your family, dear Pam

sending you a big hug !!

I know what you mean, my mom always came over for dinner on Saturday night, it was strange on saturdays after she passed on. That is how I found her, she didn't show up on time on saturday so I had to go looking for her. I had a fresh peach milkshake in the freezer waiting for her, I had to have my husband throw it away.

Maybe for a while you can take flowers to her grave to comfort you on thursdays? In time it will be easier.

Thank you Richard! How sweet are you!?! I am sorry to hear of your Mother's passing as well. It is so comforting to know that we have people to lean on in times like these, who share similar circumstances. ((HUGS)) to you during the upcoming holidays!

Thanks everyone, ( I am Pam's daughter, for those who don't know already). My sweet Nana is walking hand in hand with her Lord and Savior and is in a far better place She is with her beloved husband too, who went home to be with the Lord years and years ago.

Thanks for the nice thoughts! I know mom and I really appreciate it

[wolf_Q]

I'm very sorry to hear this. I'll be keeping Pam and her family in my thoughts.

[caseysmom]

Pam and Christiansmommy, Please accept my condolences. I am so sorry about your Mother/Grandmother, may she rest in peace.

Pam, I am so sorry for your loss.

I know how hard it is. Somehow, I think all our parents are gathered around telling each other tales about their kids .... us!

[Freedom]

Oh dear, I am so very sorry to be reading this news. Hugs to you, Pam, my thoughts are with you.
