Sad news, which although not unexpected, has knocked us all for six. She passed away on Friday night and things have been a bit crazy and sad ever since. My wife of course is terribly upset, but she is a real battler and even now is away visiting relations and making arrangements. Tough times again, but always onwards and upwards for us!

I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!

My condolences, Yogi.

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

Yogi,

I'm so sorry to hear of you and your wife's loss. Please know my sympathy is with your family. It is very hard to lose loved ones and very hard to look ahead while you are grieving. Bless you all

Yogi,

I am so sorry to hear the news. Even when it is not unexpected, the tragedy still cuts deep.

My condolences to you, your wife and family. And the strength of the family will, no doubt, help in these difficult times.

Thanks for all the kind words folks. As usual you prove you are a top bunch of people. Been pretty tough the last week or so, the funeral not till next Wednesday, but we are getting on with it!

Cheers again, one and all!

My deepest sympathies for you, wife and family. Hang in there. Waiting until next Wednesday for the funeral will be tough as closure is still days away. Stiff upper lip mate.
