This is a sad event in anyone's life, but especially those we know and honor. To lose a brother touches home and finds us imagining all his spaces throughout our lives he filled.

Yes, it is. I've not lost a sibling, and hope I'll be the first to go as I'm the eldest. Linda has lost her mother, sister and now her brother in just 12 months. That is so sad. Thanks, Bill, she will appreciate you kind words. Warm hugs, my friend. Sandra xx

Sandra,

THANK YOU! Linda sent me a message this morning, thank heavens, letting me know. It's just not fair that her brother should die on the same date her mom did and only a year later. How horribly tragic. UGH!

I had posted a poem for her - and for others who are hurting, too. I love this community with its warm, caring hearts.

Thank you!

I cried when I read her email. She has been through such a lot. Three members of her family in a year. It's not nice. I'll look for your poem, Robyn. I'll be writing one to go in Helen's book. Thanks, dear friend. :) Sandra xx

How kind of you to share this so that we can remember Linda in prayer. The picture of the flowers is lovely. I don't know Linda well, but will certainly join you in praying for her comfort and peace. I understand that she has endured much loss this past year. Blessings.

Thank you, Carol. Yes, Linda lost her mother on the 12th March 2021, her sister died shortly after, and now her brother on the 12th March this year. She is really in need of our prayers right now. She is such a caring lady, it's hard to think of her in such pain. Thank you for sending your prayers, my friend. Warm hugs, Sandra xx

I am so sorry to hear that. We went through a period like that in the eighties. Many, many deaths in the family. Thanks for letting us know, Sandra. xxx Nancy:)

I am really sorry to hear that as I have had dealings with her and she is a great lady. My thoughts are with her and her family. Thank you for sharing. I am usually on on here two to three hours a week, at the moment, and miss so much. Take care.

Thank you so much for sharing this sad news, Sandra. I don't often review Sandra's work but I have come to know her as a compassionate and caring person. My prayers, such as they are, will be with her.

Thank you, Tony, Linda is always the first to offer comfort to those who need it. She's been a great comfort to me over the years. Now she needs our prayers. Losing her mother and sister last year, and now her brother this year on the 1st anniversary of her mother's passing, is a lot to take in. She will appreciate your prayers, my friend. She has read all your replies this morning. Warm hugs, my friend. Sandra xx
