Passing along the same news here as at Cindybin as I know not everyone goes there. These board have been like a strange family so I'm sharing sad family news.

I am so profoundly sorry to read about your loss. I just can't believe it. I know you worshipped the ground she walked on. I send you a virtual hug and wish there was something I could do. You're more than welcome to reach out to me in PM.

Yes, thank you for posting so I would know. I don't think I would have known otherwise. More hugs, hard, tight hugs.

Hope you're keeping your chin up. Just checking in to see how you're doing now that things have gotten more quiet.

I guess as well as one could expect. Some bad days, some better ones. We've had two wonderful memorials for Pam, one for her professional life and one for her friends here in the building, neighborhood and Jersey City. Very uplifting and I got to put together a nice slideshow of her very best pics set to the music of Michigan artists. Going to the bank and informing them and starting that whole process went better than I thought it would. Still, now I'm planning to move back to Michigan and am currently researching condos. I've always wanted to live up north in Michigan so look for me around the Traverse City/Boyne City area. I'm kind of going through the "first wave of people have come and gone and now I have to move on" blues. Making decisions long term but a few things have to happen first Thanks for checking

Witchy, So sorry to have taken so long to get back to you. I've been swamped with life to be frank. My ex-husband and I have patched up our horrid relationship in the last couple of years. We're friends now and just in time, he was diagnosed with metastatic adenocarcinoma. No cure for pancreatic cancer, but he's been dealing with chemo, filing for social security and all sorts of legal and medical decisions. He went through a rough patch the last several months. So busy, though he's doing better than most in his situation. He's even put on weight. Strange huh? Interestingly, my partner told me just a couple of nights ago that he thinks it's pretty admirable that I've stepped up to be there for the ex-husband. I do it for my kids, my grandshild (he's almost 3) and the ex too of course. Without him, regardless of all the water that's under the bridge, I wouldn't have my kids or grandson. So, I choose to live without regrets and with hope. As for you, I'm sure you'll have good and bad times for a bit. Ups and downs. I'm glad you're going home, yet going to a new area in MI if it's what you always wanted. How very nice that you were able to share her with friends with her photos and music at these memorials. I'm sure you'll all miss her terribly. New beginnings, you'll have to keep me posted.
