Got home Sunday --found sad news
Comments (16)That is good of you to do all this for Ted & the boys. It will help Ted to move on & will make him feel loved & cared about. He must be so stressed, give him a hug from all of us & the boys too. They really need to know their mom was cared about & would be helpful if someone is assigned to take some discrete pics of flowers,people, etc. Not the casket unless you think it should be(from a distance) My kids were 15 & 17 & they wanted to see pics a few months later & then talk about losing their dad (heart attack at 48 yrs old) We had service outside at grave & 15 people sang his favorite church songs on a lovely day,besides regular minister doing the service. My kids & I were rather dazed that day but I did go home & write down some of the nice comments I heard about my hubby. I kept all the cards & letters & kids didn't read them until several years later, then it was a good feeling. I still have them & it is 25 yrs ago last Sept. So put things down & keep cards & pics & 1 day they will be like a visit from mom or a "closeness to her" Ted may also want to see them or maybe be the keeper of them but just because they have no interest in them now down the years they may be very important to them. Thanks for being there & stepping up to the plate, so many don't but people on this forum still seem to have great values & you are 1 of them. Hugs & prayers coming to all of you.

Comments (17)I could manage a little of his infomercials if I turned them WAY down. That habit of shouting when performing was indeed irritating. He didn't do that on "Pitchmen" - I rarely watched it for long because the subject matter didn't interest me that much but I caught a couple of minutes here and there while surfing. Both DH and I pretty much always watch TV with the remote in one hand though, since so many commercials come on blastingly loud - our TV has a doohickey in it that keeps volume levels consistent but our cable box defeats it. :-( (And now this is when the anti-TV people get to put their noses in the air and act all superior... *snicker*) The medical examiner involved in the case says there was absolutely no sign of head trauma in the autopsy and that cause of death was a simple heart attack....See MoreJust wanted to say hi, and let you know of my sad news
Comments (62)Wow, I am deeply touched by your kind words of support. I am more of a lurker than a poster but have come to know that you are all one very special group of people. I also know that so many of you have been through similar heart breaks, and my heart goes out to all of you. Life can be so tough at times, but we do manage to pull through with a "little help from our friends". :-) OJ: We do have an amazing support group, it actually blows me away on how much we are being cared for. Thanks for your concern. Had more to say but the phone keeps ringing and I've lost my train of thought. Will be back later to fill in the blanks. Today is a better day, thanks to all you KT'ers. You truly ROCK! BJ...See MoreSo sad - Alex Trebek has died
Comments (29)He was a class act. Just last week THIS happened after an episode aired: “On Thursday's episode, Navy veteran Burt Thakur won a tight game, taking home $20,400. After the episode finished taping, Thakur tearfully told Trebek how he watched “Jeopardy!” with his grandfather when he was a child, and in doing so learned how to speak English.”...See More- last monthlast modified: last monthOutsidePlaying thanked carolb_w_fl_coastal_9/10
