        We buried mum on Thursday, today I went up to the cemetery all alone (my choice) and laid roses on the grave and those of the rest of the family buried there.

        Most poignant was my sister's grave, 6 years ago today she passed away!

                  @Vince I feel for you. It is the proper order of things. That we become orphans before we pass on. I still miss my parents. Hugs from me.

                      Vince, may I offer my sincere condolences.

                      Please don't hurry back to work. I did that once and it ended my career.

                      Take care.
