Dale and Sassy,
I lost my brother and his wife in a fire. I just found out New Year's Eve day. Here is the article from the newspaper.
I am just at a loss....and am still in shock.

Anita - again my deepest sympathy!
Hugs and Love

Life is here and suddenly gone
for some it's short, for others long
The answer lies beyond our reach
it's for us to learn and not to teach

Jesus is with us in times we mourn
Has never left us since we were born
With loving arms He comforts the soul
and puts our lives back into control

A time of joy and a time to weep
promises forever our soul He'll keep
Know our heart goes out to you
yet we know He'll see you through

With Deepest Sympathy!

I only just read about this dreadful occurance, please accept my sincerest  condolences. I know we are strangers living thousands of miles apart but that doesn't mean we can't feel each others heartaches. My thoughts and prayers for all of your family.  Love Val xx

Dearest Anita,
 
Although we spoke on the phone (and it was wonderful to hear your voice, though more positive circumstances would have been preferred), I want to express my condolences here as well.  This news of your brother and his wife, and the way that you learned of it, breaks my heart.  Too many traumas have found their way to your door.  Too many heartaches have been placed before you.  You are proof that unpleasant thing happen to undeserving, wonderful people, and I am so sorry for your loss. 
 
During our conversation, I warmed at your obvious love for your brother.  You made me fall in love with him from your fond memories of his thoughtful heroicism, even in his youth.  Your love and adoration of Don could actually be heard and felt in your voice.  That is how I will always think of him --  as a hero.  I know that the aching must subside before being able to pay tribute to him, as you so beautifully have done for your other siblings and parents, but I look forward to the day...   
 
If you need anything Nita, please do not hesitate to let me know.
 
Love, Hugs and Prayers for You,
 
Mindy
