o/t Tommorow we say goodbye

Sherrie H, 25 September, 2008 at 18:13 Posted on Planning 0 32

To my lovely , Brave SIL. It is her funeral tomorrow and I am dreading it. I have been going over & over the reading I am doing, today to try & do it without crying.

It will be so hard to say goodbye but I know she is at peace now after all the suffering & pain.

RIP Elaine xx

    ....its okay to cry. Sure, you'll want to do the reading without breaking down but if you do...just take a big breath, look up and carry on when you are ready.

    Will be thinking of you and family x

    She'll be with you Sherrie - be strong and take comfort that she's in a place without pain and suffering. I'm not a religious person but I truely believe that folk don't just fade away - she's with you and always will be.

    Nothing else matters.

    I did it. It was the most beautiful service I have ever been to. The whole crematorium was packed & they were standing outside were over 300 people there. Everywhere was a sea of yellow her favouriste colour & each of us carried a single yellow rose to place on the coffin.
    I did the reading & managed to get through it all. The hardest part was being in the car behind the hearse all the way but she had the most wonderful send off & we all went back to the Social Club and her brothers had put together her life story to cine films & pics that they had collected over the years. We also raised over £4000 for Marie Curie in her Memory.

    She was a fabulous lady & more like a sister I will miss her deeply but she will always be in my heart.

    Thank you so much for all the emails & messages they are a great comfort.
