So very sorry for your loss Allison. Hope it's obvious to you that you have a great support team here if you need it.

And this...

Alison,

I'm so sorry for your loss. I also lost my mother 10 years ago. The best advice I can give you is to NOT make any big decisions for about a year. Things can wait. Give yourself time to grieve, heal and think. Don't allow yourself to be pushed or hurried by well-meaning people. Just take care of yourself and go at your own pace.

Be nice to yourself. Our best to you and your family.

... is great advice.

Alison

Our thoughts are with you. Holidays are the hardest times to lose someone...be kind to yourself. Bill and Susi Smith. Shady Lane Cafe

Thank you all for your kind wishes. The service was very nice, she would have approved!. Lots of old friends there. We played Dean Martin's That's Amore at the end which brought a smile to everyones face. It was her favorite song. A very sad day - she was a one off - but with laughter as well as tears thrown in. Will be returning to the States Mon 6th December.
