Thank you Rose, love and hugs. 💜
 
You've been on my mind all night @SeaBreeze. My husband also died unexpectedly. It is a great shock, I know. I'm so very sorry for your loss, you have always presented yourself here as a Fine Lady. My thoughts are with you. Hugs & Love to you.
Thanks so much Pepper, I know you've suffered the same type of grief. Sending love and hugs. May your husband rest peacefully. 💙
 
You have also been on my mind all night. Had you prepared for the funeral or do you have some to help you get that. done. We had not made prior arrangements but many discussions of what he would like, so I did as his wishes but I had about 8 people there helping.

My husband wanted a large service and while hard on me, I am not good with crowds, he did get what he wanted. It was huge and people came from all over. The family kind of circled up to help me deal with the crowds.

My own I have set up for direct cremation, no visitation, no service. I tell you this so you be sure to take the time to consider the options and expense that may be incurred. The cost for his was around 10,000, this was without burial only cremation as he came home with me. The cost of visitation, funeral services, renting a large chapel adds up quick.

Depending on your finances, your church (we were not members of a church) may be able to keep cost down. If you don't have a burial plot, cremation may be a possibility. We had/have plots but using them adds more cost.

If he is a veteran the best thing would be at a national cemetery provided to him as part of his service.
At the time of your passing you can be placed there with him in his resting spot.
Thank you Blessed. We both decided years ago we wanted cremation and no services, would not take ashes home. I have already had him cremated at a high quality funeral home in our area, his ashes were spread by them in a special memorial garden.
 
So very sorry to read about your beloved husband's passing.

I believe we all want to die in bed with our loved one at our side.

Thinking of you as you go forward with the funeral & services.


it will be a long & strange road you walk to discover yourself.
Know that many here have walked the same road .
I'm on the same path you just left dealing with an injured husband.
Thank you Silverfox. I was glad he passed at home with someone who loved him, that is the best way to go. He was already cremated, remains sprinkled in a memorial garden. I'm sorry to hear about your husband, sending warm thoughts, love and hugs to you both.
 
Just now reading this sad news, @SeaBreeze , and adding my condolences to everyone else’s . Over the years, I have enjoyed reading your posts about the adventures you , your husband, and your beloved dogs and Kitty cat have had, with the camping in the mountains.
I know that you two were very devoted to each other and so happy together, and this must be the most devastating thing, to lose your husband overnight, with no thought that he was in poor health.
Sending you my love, hugs, and prayers as you go through this sorrow in your life, and hoping that God will give you comfort and peace going forward.
I am glad that you have your pets to keep you company and comfort you !

Thank you Happyflowerlady for your condolences and nice thoughts. He really was always in good health, except old leg injuries began to tighten up and give him pain as he became older. Glad you enjoyed our camp posts with our pets. We were very devoted and happy with each other all those years, it is difficult to have him leave us so suddenly. Sending love and hugs your way my friend.
 
I'm so very sorry for your loss Seabreeze! My heart goes out to you. I hope the beautiful memories you have of your wonderful husband will help ease your grief and give you comfort. May he rest peacefully in paradise.
