You have my condolences nightsecho....I am sorry for your loss.   Saying that he is no longer in pain does very little if nothing to comfort you.    I hate valentines day for my own selfish reasons...which don't matter.

My grandmother died in '93 about 1 in the morning on Thanksgiving day...strangely enough I celebrate Thanksgiving more strongly than any other holiday ( except maybe Halloween ) partly to celebrate her but also to remind myself to be thankful for ALL things good and bad... I gather my "family" ( not just blood- family to me are those who have walked beside me as my friends and brothers and sisters- blood or no blood ) and we have a feast in memory of the dead and dying and tell each other what we are thankful for...

...sorry to ramble on

                                ...like I said you have my condolences for your loss

No prob...basic human courtesy, if you need to talk to someone e-mail me...sometimes talking helps...but sometimes it doesn't...anyway if you need an ear let me know

At any rate I hope things brighten for you

Talk about Rotten Luck, Condolences I lost my Great aunt recently, and that doesn't sound like much but we were closer then most parents, just saying because It always helps me knowing others are going through the same sorts of things
