Words cannot express the feelings of losing a loved one. Words from those who care may help a little. I know the emptiness of losing a wife. We only had 5 years back together after 42 years since our highschool romance. It's been 19 years now..... Try to stay busy. As tough as it is, take comfort in the fact that dozens of us care.....God bless you and your wife.....
Lemondana; Sorry to hear that, my condolences. While there is nothing I, nor anyone else, can say that will ease the pain, I will tell you that after more than a few decades, I finally figured out, that the level of pain-at(from)-separation, is directly related(proportionate) to the love-bond created. While it does take time to burn the pain down, when(or as) it lessens, it is *not* a diminution of the love-bond. The mind is simply not as totally focused on that event. But Love doesn't die, & remembering the good times/events will come easier. Like the sun after a nasty night-storm. Do not skip the grieving process, it's required to heal. I wish you well. Peace. Marcus...
.......My words may not mean much at a time like this, but know that the HAMB Family has you in our thoughts and prayers...........Don.
Sad to hear of your Wife’s passing. Surround yourself with Family and Friends for a while to help deal with Her loss. Many on here are very understanding as they have dealt with similar situations, you reaching out is a good step in Your healing. All The Best, Carp.
Sorry to hear of your loss 33 years is a long time to be with your best friend,I've been with my wife for 45 years met right after high school. I don't know what I'd do without her, hope you have family you can lean on.
My condolences and sympathy to you on the loss of your dear wife. I can’t imagine how thus must feel but hope the good memories help you over this with time.
I lost my own wife (36 years) 54 days ago. Really took it out of me, but I'm starting to act and feel somewhat normal again. You'll come to terms with it.
You have my condolences. I feel your pain. I lost my wife of almost 41 years to breast cancer three years ago. For me it was very dark at first but you will find places that will give you joy and happiness again. Friends and family will help - maybe the old car too. Praying for you
I don't have the words to ease your pain, so all I can do is ask my Lord to give you comfort from your pain, to cover you with His love, and for Him to give you the strength you need to move forward as you need it. Amen.
Loss is hard, one thing I have found in my sixty five years is working with my hands on a project while working through the emotions of losing someone you love helps both distract and focus you. So maybe give it a little time and get yourself in the shop.
Like everyone here. Sorry about your loss. I was hoping this would be a light hearted thread on buying another car and the dispute many have with their spouse over it. Words can never explain, may your memories always last. Again my condolences.
Sympathy and prayers to you... everything's been said above. My mom passed a little over a year ago, Time does heal, just not as soon as we'd like.
May the Good Lord ease your pain and loss, I can't imagine what you are going through and I pray you will be blessed in the weeks and months to come. HRP
