Guest guest Posted October 25, 2006 Report Posted October 25, 2006 Hi Stevie- Sending Heavenly birthday wishes to Mr. B as he tends to his new garden of Lily of the Valley's. Hugs and more hugs to you- Sandie -- Re: Dena's Aunt Off Topic Dear Dena, My love and prayers are with you and your family at this time. She waited until he was at dinner. That seems to be how it happens when LO's have a hard time releasing from the LO's left behind. She needed to go. Bless her. Rest up for the weeks to come and call me if you need anything. Much more love, prayers and wonderful Peace to you, Stevie **Caregiver for Mr. B since dx with Parkinson's in 1993, dx with LBD in 2003, passed away on July 6, 2006 in my home.** His birthday is on the 25th of October. He would have been 83. * * * * * > > Hi Everyone > > I just wanted to let that my Aunt Louise passed away > last night at 8:00pm.
