Our Dear Backhoe, lost his wife, Miss. Emily suddenly early Monday morning.

The Source URL will take you to the thread he posted on FRee Dominion (Our sister site in Canada), and this link takes you to his announcement here on FR.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/833678/posts?page=12455#12455

Most of you know that Backhoe maintains the thread "DUBOB 11- more tales from the Dark UnderBelly Of the Beast...", and since his post was made there, very few have seen it.

Our good FRiend could really use our support, so please post all replies to Backhoe.

He is busy with funeral arrangements, so may not post much, or at all, but he will read it, and appreciate the love and support.

Thank you, fanfan.

Such sad news. May God rest her soul, and comfort yours my FRiend.
And let those amazing fur children that God shares with us, help you through this hard time.

I am so sorry. I cannot imagine what you are going through and hope you can hang on and know she is never gone as long as she is in your heart and she will be there forever.

Hello,
I was given a poem by the funeral home just before my Mom’s funeral that I liked so much I had it read at her funeral. It touched me and I will forever be thankful for the woman who gave it to me.

“Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
I am I, and you are you and whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Life means all that it ever meant,
It is the same as it ever was.
There is an absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you for an interval somewhere very near,
just around the corner.
All is well.
Nothing is past.
Nothing is lost.
One brief moment and all will be as it was before.
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again”

I can’t imagine your pain. My heart breaks reading this, and my thoughts turn to the notion that Christ’s agony in the garden really must have been that of the entire world, because only a sorrow so great can truly comprehend the loss of a wife and best friend.
