To let all my friends on GN aware that my lovely man John died very suddenly this last Monday morning it is such a shock all I console myself with is that my darling man knew nothing about it.
He enjoyed reading GN posts every now and then and laughed at many of them xx RIP my darling John.x

I am so, so sorry, Glamma, my deepest sympathy, love and hugs flowers

Gramma, all my sympathies to you at this time. The same thing happened to me, and I am comforted by the fact that I have no memories of him looking old or ill, and suffering a long illness. The picture in my mind is always of his lovely face.
This is such a hard time for you, you will find strength from memories of the happiness you both shared. It is hard to believe at first, but I promise you it will happen. My love and thoughts are with you.

I am so very sorry to hear your sad news.

Glamma what a fitting end for such a caring man, although an end too soon.

You and the family must be heartbroken, and yet proud.

I hope that the many happy memories you must have will be of some comfort to you in the time to come.

With love,

phoenix

Dear glamma, I’ve only just caught up with this and I’m so sorry to read it. He sounds such a lovely man. My sincere condolences flowers

glammanana Sat 14-Dec-19 14:51:08

Thank you everyone for the very kind words.
My John was the most wonderful person you could wish to meet,he adored his family and was delighted these past 3 yrs to have small people in the family by way of our 2 x GGCs and a GD he loved helping me care for our GGS every Wednesday when his mummy went to work,he had a strong work ethic which he has passed onto our ACs and adult GCs.
My John left the house on Monday 7.25am to take our DD to work turned out of our Road then pulled the car over to the kerb and was gone by 7.30 he was caring right to the end by pulling out of traffic and not causing an accident.
Thank you EV for you kind words and to all my GN friends I love you all x

Dear Glamma, I have only just read about your sad loss. I read EVs lovely post which was so special.
I think I'm originally from your neck of the woods...I was born in Southport but can never make the meet ups because I'm now permanently in France.
I wish I was closer to where you are and could do something but I'm thinking of you at this very sad time and sending love, thoughts and prayers every day.

Soooo sorry to hear of your sad loss most especially at this time of the year tho it does sound as though you have family support around you. Hold them close and be thankful that your darling husbands passing was quick and peaceful, it's all that we would wish for each other. Hugs xx....
