I'm wishing you all a very happy, healthy prosperous 2016. I truly hope everyone will be healthy and happy all year long. My paperwork has been completed and mailed and I hope that is all of it. I was really overwhelmed with all that had to be done. My girlfriend has invited me to her house for New Years Eve but I want to stay in tonight. I'm just not ready to party and we have stayed home for the last few years so this will be normal for me. I hope you will all be safe and careful tonight but enjoy the evening.

I want to share this gift that I received. It came the day of the viewing for Bill and I can't tell you how touched I was and how much I cried. The card is just lovely and the Prayer Shawl is simply beautiful. The written verse inside the card had brought me such comfort and love. The Shawl wraps me in God's love and comforts me so very much. It is just stunning in variegated shades of blue with gorgeous fringe along the bottom. It is such a treasured possession and the picture doesn't do it the justice it deserves. Be kind to one another.

Brenda, this is a lovely card, and the prayer shawl is a real treasure. Someone thinks a great deal of you & deservedly so. I'm happy if this brings you comfort in this particular time. Also it will keep you cozy on the chilly evenings that are sure to come in the New Year. I wish for you & Molly, a much less stressful 2016, and I'm happy to hear the paperwork is getting handled...and hope it's not causing too much aggravation. We have had a good time (relaxing too - might as well have left my copics at home!) but now it's time to start loading up, for the Goodby tomorrow. Don't do that very well, but needs must. Big hugs, TFS & thanks for your visit. I hope this means you are feeling lots better from the virus.

Stunning card & a gorgeous prayer shawl--treasures, indeed! Glad you have friends thinking of you & keeping in touch. We always stay home for New Year's eve & this year there's football, so suits us fine! Wishing you peace & happiness in 2016, Brenda. Hugs, Greta

Oh, Brenda, I wish for 2016 to be filled with more peace and wonderful memories to sustain you in your grieving. It is never easy to lose a loved one and I think you and Bill had a special relationship. I am glad your paperwork is complete and now you can take care of yourself (gosh hope by now you are done with that "bug") and Molly...Yo have something to keep you warm in the coming winter months. I continue to pray for you, my friend! God bless and Peace be with you and all through this New Year!
