Subject: RE: Obit: My Wife From: Little Hawk Date: 03 Dec 03 - 06:59 PM I attended the visitation today, along with Daylia and a number of other close friends of David's (Raptor's). He's a strong and good man. I believe he will weather this storm okay. Some of us are going to be right there to help him do that too. I saw a lot of affection today, and a lot of the goodness in people, although they may not know just what to say at such a time. Well, words may never be enough, but the heart knows what it knows, regardless. And in our hearts we are right there, with strength greater than we know to carry us through. Blessed be. - LH |
Subject: RE: Obit: My Wife From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 03 Dec 03 - 06:57 PM David, My arms are reaching out to you in an enveloping embrace. My friend, you know that I've been through something close to this. No one's story is exactly the same, and no one's grief is the same, but there are many similarities. I am here if you need me. I'm glad you've reached out to these folks. They will be here for you, too. In many cultures, sitting in vigil with the bereaved is a way to honor the dead and honor the grief. We are here for you, candles burning. Say what you need to, and especially, tell us about your wife. We want to know her, too. All my love, Allison |

Subject: RE: Obit: My Wife From: *daylia* Date: 03 Dec 03 - 06:28 PM brucie, I saw Raptor at the visitation today, he's doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances. Got lots of family and musical friends around to support him, so that's good. Dave, you know you and Heidi continue to receive the very best of my "prayerful" efforts and intentions. I meant what I told you yesterday -- please don't hesitate to call me, anytime, night or day, if ever you need or want to, my friend. Love, Michelle |

Subject: RE: Obit: My Wife From: Bobert Date: 03 Dec 03 - 04:42 PM Raptor, I am so sorry, my friend. Having lost my wife, Judy, 5 years ago this past Oct. 2nd, I know just the sorrow and emptiness you are feeling. I hope you will find a point when you are feeling comfortable enough to share a couple of good stories so that we may also be part of cellebrating your wife's life... Until then, you and your family are in my heart and prayers... God be with with you as I'm sure He is with her.. Bobert |
