	Thank you everyone for your loving thoughts. The funeral has been arranged for a week on Monday, and his ashes are being placed in a tree stump in the woodland walk at the local cemetary, instead of being scattered. Hubby finally managed to put words onto paper in the early hours of this morning and has written a beautiful poem. I will put it on the "Remember Me" thread on the General Board. Thanks again Love Helen xxxxxxx

	Helen, I've just read your husbands poem on 'General', and it's wonderful. Brought a tear to my eye as I lost my father in law 7 months ago and still miss him dreadfully. Thank you for sharing it with us. Cath xx
