Really sad day for me today. My dad passed away peacefully this morning. Whilst he never 'got' my obsession with small soldiers; he supported me in anything I did and was a great dad. He fought for so long against Parkinson's and Louis Bodie's dementia but he gave up his fight at 10:10 this morning. Rest in peace dad, we love you.
Such sad news. Us Thurlows are thinking of you All...
ReplyDeleteI Did Not Die
ReplyDeleteDo not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle Autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush.
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there;
I did not die.
My thoughts are with you and your family.
