    Please spare a thought...

    ...for the mother of my children, my ex-wife of 35 years, who passed away this afternoon after a short illness. Although we have been divorced these past eight years, we were still close and remained good friends. I shall miss her presence in my life. Rest in peace my dear friend, rest in peace. I offer this music for you.

    Condolences to you and your children. 37 years is a pretty good innings to be married these days and it is great that you were able to remain friends after the divorce.

    Sad news indeed.

    A divorce does not remove a partner's place in your life story. Sorry for your loss.

    very sad to hear slofox, after so many years, and having shared your children together, I imagine she will hold a place in your heart together.
    Thoughts are with you and your kids mate, RIP.

    Thanks Martybabe, I love that piece as well. And not at all inappropriate - she would have been honoured.

    I'm so sorry!

    Big hugs for you... and your kids. Losing a Mum is one of the toughest things they will face!
    Lots of love and support around them now I hope :-(
