I am so sorry, Kathleen, for your and your family's loss of Dick. There is so much that you will experience in the weeks and months ahead that might confuse and frighten you. If that is the case, I encourage you to find a widow's group, either on line or in your community. Those who have gone through what you have experienced will be able to understand and help in a way that others are just not capable of. I so wish I would have done it earlier. May God's peace surround you in the coming days.
