    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

    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 washed my brothers uniforms this morning, his company rents them and asked for them back. It was actually kind of soothing.

    How's your niece doing? How's the kitty? Most important, how are YOU? I know when life kicks you in the butt and you think you can't make sense of it, things have a way of working out. Hoping all is well with you, sweet dear. You deserve good things.
