TERRIBLE NEWS FROM YORKIEGIRL

Yorkiegirl has phoned me from holiday in Portugal; her husband Nigel has collapsed and died tonight.
She thinks it was a stroke or heart attack.
The authorities are trying to get hold of her parents - they are also in Portugal
Fortunately, neither of her DDs saw anything
I don't know much more than that but will post if I have anything else

I really don't know what to say... everything I type seems inappropriate. So very sorry for your loss. I remember seeing these words just after I lost my mum and they've stuck with me so I thought I'd pass them on. 'God saw the ruged pathway was becoming hard to climb so he closed those weary eyelids and whispered peace be thine'. Take care of each other xxxx

ukrainianmum · 10/08/2006 20:49
