David/Melbguy1, sincere condolences on your loss.

... It will get better over time and remember it wouldn't hurt so much if there hadn't been so much love.

IMO this is one of the best single sentences I can recall ever reading on the Internet. Thanks, Michael. It's helpful to me as well, as my mother passed away a few months ago.

Best regards,

That's quite a compliment, Al. Thanks, much. I'm sorry to hear about loss. My sincerest condolences. Your muddy cyberfriend and fellow Nutmegger.

Michael

Only three scenarios here: 1. He actually DID lose a family member and chose an amazingly inappropriate use of this event to engender sympathy, 2. Nobody died and he's grasping at straws which is slightly weirder, and 3. He's joking, although seeing the post from Charles1dad I somehow doubt that and can only conclude this guy is 12 (that could be the 4th scenario).

Sorry, but I simply don't think this forum should be used as a condolence generator...that's just inelegant, cringe inducing, and an utter buzzkill.

Sorry for the loss of your grandfather Melbguy1.

Thank you for your kindness. Also this will be my last post on this forum as I have decided to cancel my membership effective immediately.

Melbguy1,
It's evident that you're experiencing some obvious stress and tough times in your life presently. I really hope your circumstances are properly addressed and things improve and you can resolve your personal crisis.
Sincerely,
Charles,
