[StoneChucker]

such a morbid thread
You're right, but don't be sorry! I'M really sorry to hear about that, hope you're doing ok, it must be traumatic for you. Give us a shout if you need anything.

Oh, and how right you are about life being short. I've so many things to say, and not enough confidence to say them.

Hang in there bud

[Ms Piggy]

You're right, but don't be sorry!
Too right Tony - no need to apologise for reminding us of something as important as that.

I am sorry for your loss. I know it sounds really cheesey but, I'm sure he knew you appreciated him. You may not have said it verbally but I'm sure you showed it in other ways.

Take care.

[scumdog]

You are soooo right XJ/FROSTY, I see/hear it all the time in my job.
Tell those precious to you how you feel about them for sure, fewer regrets then.

I often think "poor bugger, I'll bet when he woke up this morning he didn't think this is how he would end up' - and it's true.

[ching_ching]

Ditto Mr Frosty Man.

Need a little reminder now and then.

Condolences.

chingy one

[jazbug5]

So sorry Frosty;

like CSL said; I'm sure he knew how much you valued him.
Seems like you've had the roughest time of late, mate. Take time to grieve for him, it's something you will have to ride out; but on the other side of that hill there are good times coming up again. The summer approaches... and maybe we'll get to meet up with you at some point during it.
Best wishes,

Jaz

Its reality Tony - and thanks for that.

Firstly, my sincere condolences on your loss.

Secondly, telling the people you love, how important they are is so vital, it strange how it takes something like death to make you realise that. My dad passing made me realise every day is the best day you have, make the most of it with the people that mean something. :yes:

Condolenses XJ/FROSTY, and like the others have said take time to grieve.

Mate.. No need to be sorry.. I'm amazed that while we now have so many ways to communicate, we don't actually do it very well do we?

Death is the final mystery and I'm not sure, like a lot of the intangible things in the universe, that we should ever understand it. Obviously I don't know your personal situation, but I'm certain that your uncle would be proud of your words here. And who knows, perhaps he is smiling on them right now?

Best Regards to you and your family...

Too true. I'm sure that they knew.
:hug: No need to be sorry. It's better to let out, than to let it stagnate.
Condolences to you and your family and other friends.

Man - It is so amazing that you can find time to let us know how things should be. Thanks for the reminder. My deepest sympathy to you and your family for your loss - let us know if there is anything we can do.

[Holy Roller]

My condolences to your family, death is an event we wish to be excluded from but in reality draws us together.
I pray that you shall have strength at this time of sorrow.

Sorry to hear for your loss.

Mate - sorry to hear that. Hope you & Drew and the rest of the family are ok.

[Kwaka-Kid]

Really sorry to hear dude! :( not cool.

sounds like a great theory but to be honest being immature and 19 its harder then it seems

[6Chris6]

Shit brother, give me a call if you want for a chat, or if you wanna go out for a beer etc.
Only around the corner brother!

[jazbug5]

Really sorry to hear about that WT.
Can't have been good news to come back to.

[jrandom]

My sympathies, Frosty and Trashy. Not much one can say, really. I always end up tongue-tied in these situations.

:spudwhat:

Last funeral I attended was for my wife's stepfather's mother. So not exactly terribly close. But the occasion was just so... bleak. It all seemed a bit pointless.

It's certainly worth remembering to make the most of people while you have them with you.

Sincere condolences Frosty, and to you too WT.

It's very easy to not tell people how much we care. We kind of think they pick it up by osmosis, which I guess does happen most of the time, but things like this kind of bring it home that we should tell those we like/love how much we care.

[SPman]

Tell people that you care about them, what they mean to you.Write to them or email - whatever. I did that recently to my kids and partner - then, whatever happens to them ,or you, people know you care.
Sorry about your loss Frosty - I also lost my Uncle on Saturday and my Aunt who I was close to, last month. ISuddenly. She had things she wanted to tell me , but, not on the phone. I was lax in going to see her, so now, I'll never know.

[Motu]

Sudden death is a shock,the only positive for cancer is that it gives time to prepare.We never got too emotional with my Mother,but she kinda got the idea - ''you don't have to come and see me every day y'know,I'll let you know if something happens''....'yeah, but I want to come,ok?'

She never told us much about her early life,just a few tales of life on the farm,milking cows,riding horses to school,romantic stuff to keep kids happy.Later in life I wanted to know more,especialy as we started to piece my Fathers family history together and had a family reunion.All we knew was that a 17 yr old appeared in Auckland all alone in 1945,with no past - finally she said she would write it all down and we could read it when she was gone.So after she died we found an exersise book with 47 pages of writing in it,her early life on the farm and her early days in Auckland.My wife condensed it down and with some excerts read it out for her funeral - apart from her 2 sisters no one else knew what she had gone through,it was an education for all of us,and my Aunties were able to confirm and pad out the tale.It was emotional stuff to read and helped explain who she was,and why - but it would of been nice to be able to talk about it all with her in life...but then it was her life,not mine eh?

It's a wake up call losing someone close - now I think what if I wasn't here tomorrow....did they know I cared? Grumpy days need to be obliterated by happy days.

sorry its such a morbid thread :o :crybaby: :argh:

Sorry to hear of your loss - I lost my father a few years ago and like you, I never got the chance to tell him how I felt.

My wife and I tell each other that we love each other every day without fail. just a few little words, but they really do make the world of difference.

Hope you are coping as well as can be expected,

Bob

[FROSTY]

I know I didn't always say it but you meant a lot to me.
You hold a place in my heart which I hold dear.
You helped bring out the best in me.
Sometimes you listened to me and others I listened to you.
We shared alot of laughs and a few tears.
I know I can come to you when I need someone to listen.
I also wanted you to know I would be here for you if you ever needed me.
That to me is what friendship is.
Depending on one another, trusting one another, and having fun.
I want to say it now in case I ever forget.
Thank you for being my friend and sharing a piece of your heart with me. I
also give a piece of my heart to you and that place will always be open to
you.
May light always find a way to brighten your dark days. May happiness find
its way through your sorrow. May your days be filled with surprises and
wonder. I wish you ever lasting friends like I have found in you.
