It’s been one crummy year!
At the beginning of this year my grandmother passed away. My mother and I tried to get things in order for one of us to get there (The U.S.) but we didn’t make it on time. Then a few months later my father’s mother died. We weren’t that close for various reasons, but I felt really bad for my dad. Now Kirsi’s mom passed away yesterday.
So I’m sure you understand that things will be quiet around here for awhile.
Thanks for understanding.
-Scott and Family-
I’m very sorry for your lost. I know how it feels to lose a loved in the family. My heart goes out to you and your wife.
Kirsi, I am so very sorry for your loss. I hope you know that your mother loved you, Scott, and your children very much. She is so proud of you and all that you have accomplished.

I’m so sorry for you and yours; I know how hard this is. *hugs* Just wanted you to know we care.
Take care of your family, and don’t worry about us…we’ll be here, and we know that family comes first. My condolences for your losses, and best wishes
I’m so sorry for your families losses.
What he DID have that I didn’t was experience. That nothing was ever as good or bad as it seemed, the sun will come up tomorrow, there ARE other fish in the sea, etc., and never make a decision when you’re upset.
Losing grandparents is bad enough, but losing a parent is the double whammy.
When I lost my Dad, I was devastated. He was my oldest and best friend.
But added to that was the horror that now I was the “top of the totem pole”, with everyone looking to me for advice and answers.
But with that came an epiphany- how many times over the years had I gone to my Dad with a problem and HE HAD NO MORE OF AN IDEA WHAT TO DO THAN I DID !!
While I still miss him to this day, I never felt closer to him than when helping my grandson with a “problem”.
Bless your hearts and God watch over you in your time of sorrow and help you find peace.
So sorry for your losses ,mind yourselves taake your time. We’ll be here when you come back.
This has not been a good year for grandparents in our family either. Sorry for your loss
I’m sorry fo your loss and I hope she didn’t have to suffer.

Thanks to all of you for showing your condolences. It means a lot. We’re slowly getting back into our daily life here. Carrying on with everyday routines helps.
Thank you.
My condolences for the whole family. Having a loved one die sucks
I don’t really know what to say, but as the old saying goes misery loves company therefore this is a time to spend with your family and loved ones.
