So sorry Vangie!

  My mom died in October and I let my sister handle everything.  I was NOT going to say anything to anyone.  I just smiled.  I just let the stupid stuff go over my head---except for one aunt.  She mentioned my mom being in heaven and I did say- heaven? Oh no, she is just dead.  she won't rise again till we all do.  She said "Oh" and that was it.  Oh well.

The Lord will get you thru this and who knows what the future holds for things and conversations that happen now.  Just love your family and "be there" for them. Let His light shine.

Sorry to hear of your loss, Vangie.

I understand your worries about the events in the coming days, but don't worry, it will all be good. I think Gena's example is good to follow, don't push anything, but reply if necessary.

God be with you,
Eirik

Hi Vangie,

I understand how you must feel.  Only a few months ago, I experienced the death of a family member and had to endure the ordeal of funeral arrangements and all that goes with it.  You and your husband will be in my prayers.   

We never know who may be led to question the hope that we have in Christ.  Perhaps, your husband will initiate a question with you about death now that he has suffered this painful loss.  I had the opportunity to share the true state of the dead with several relatives at that time, although I doubt if any of them believed me. :)

Vangie:
Thank you all for your warm replies.  I will apply ALL of your sound advice and appreciate you sharing your experiences.

God willing, sleep will come easily tonight!     

Love,
Vangie
