BS: Thanks from Heslop (via Cats)

I would like to thank all those 'Catters from all over the world who have sent kind wishes, good thoughts, blessings, lit candles etc for my Dad, Bob, who died last week. As funerals go, it was a good one. His last tot of rum was on the coffin and as the commital started a bright shaft of sunshine came through the window and lit it all up. On the way back from the crematorium, it rained and we had two very bright rainbow bridges. That's the way to go!

So sorry to hear about your Dad Jon. Sounds like you gave him a good send off, and you'll always carry those rainbows in your heart!

My thoughts are with you.

You'll carry him in your heart for a long time, to let him know how loved he was, and he will stay there to comfort you.

Then one day you will wake up to discover you have set him free.

And your grief will pass

I'm glad the funeral was so fitting.....you know he was glad to go. It won't stop you missing him but it's all a small consolation

Love Lynne

You will always remember that you sent him on his way with the wonders of nature.
Lots of love.
