Some Bishop we have never met here in the town we live called and asked us to reconsider leaving our names on the Church. We both said "No." He then asked me again if I wouldn't please reconsider leaving my

My heartfelt condolences to you in the death of your wife. Grief is a tough journey. My husband died in December 2016. We had almost 50 years together so I have lots of memories that are a salve to the enormous waves of grief that sweep over me. I have not had one day that I have not cried since he died. I understand people mean well when they tell me how fortunate that we had almost fift

Thanks rolled tacos on a Sunday. It really was a good almost 50 years and I am so happy we left the church together. We were both converts and he really joined to marry me.He was so supportive and I knew he didn't really believe it and I certainly had some issues with some of the teachings but we tried to be good Mormons. We spent 9 years in the Church. He loved it the day he came home from the b

SusieQ#1, We had a "Living Will" and Gene had everything filed like Life Insurance,IRA,Tax returns, Social Security info, etc., etc. All the papers I'd need.You are right about being prepared. He was a USAF active duty Officer for 11 years and USAF reserve Officer for 11 years plus 30 years Civilian with The US Army Department of Defence so the paperwork is daunting even with what

Dear MexMom, Thank you for your kind message and wishes for comfort and healing. I am Sorry to hear your mother and grandmother also had Multiple Myeloma. There have been many advances in the treatment and people from at least 58 countries have gone to the Myeloma Institute in Little Rock, Arkansas for treatment.

Thank you angela. My heartfelt condolences in the death of your mother and the grief seems even more overwhelming when the death is not expected. My husband was very ill but making slow progress and was up in the sunroom playing cards with us on Friday, doing physical therapy and hopeful but got "hit" with another complication from the chemo and died Tuesday. The plan was to get

Thanks dagny. Yes, he was my best friend. I enjoyed your posts too, logical and factual. Are you still in the South? When we moved to the South it was an adjustment for us. If you you are not Born Again and Republican it took some time finding people who didn't want to convert us to their religion or politics.
