Dave:
We are devastated for your loss, our loss, of Marilyn. She was the best of us in so many ways and we grieve for you having to live without her.
She is with her Mom and Dad, we are sure right now in heaven and is no longer in pain. She is planning you all´s next antiquing trip to Maine!
We are sad to say your pain will never go away because she is not here; but, we hope you will be able to live with it.
Know the pain of the loss each day reminds us of them- they mattered- and still matter.
As long as we remember Marilyn she isn´t really gone; she just away for a little while.
I think the Vera Lynn song says it -
"We´ll meet again; don´t know where don´t know when;
but we´ll be together one sunny day."
Please also remember Ashley, Joseph, and Carolyn all are there for you as are the rest of us!
Allen, Sun Mi, Michael as well as the pseudo-Tsungs McLoughlins of Mickey, Judy, and Rachel wish you peace.
I, Mickey (Michael Padraig McLoughlin), want you to know you always can pop up the Kutztown and spend some time maybe antiquing for some perfect additions to the collection you and Marilyn built. I put a picture of St. Gertrude in this message because of my love of cats and I dedicated my Rosary to Marilyn indeed do so for decades.
