8/17/15 Mon

Yest was Heidi's memorial.  It was a sad sad day and lots of tears were shed.  I spent the last 2 weeks caring for her and I wouldn't have been anywhere else.  It was such a special time and we had some golden moments between the two of us.  I wouldn't have given it up for the world.   I also had some special time with her two children and saw a different side of her spouse I had never seen.  She and Les had a special kind of love, almost like something you have ever seen, something like you see on television.  It even astounded the minister.   So she was about love and it was reflected in the 150+ people that came to the service.  It was outside in the park and her daughter did such a beautiful job of getting it set up.  She had a time line in pictures laid out and hung on a rope so people could look at them.  It was special.  She had a DJ that played music, she had albums set out and a video show playing.  It was just great.
But I still miss her and her spouse gave me a small wooden thing he made that fits on a key chain and it is a small piece of her ashes.   That made me cry all over again..
So today I just did some computer work and laid around mainly.  I pulled a few of my sisters weeds in her garden and really accomplished nothing.
I think it will take me a long time to recover emotionally and physically.
