Two nights ago, we finished going through the sympathy cards from my mother's passing in April. I just let them stack up on the kitchen table because I couldn't bear to open them up and read them. And by "we", I mean "Tom". I've saved the cards along with the guest register book from the funeral and I'll write thank you/ acknowledgement notes in the coming weeks.

I do feel good in that I've finished my thank you notes for the people that donated to Lifepath Hospice in honor of my mother.  Things are getting to a place where I can close a door on this part of my life. It's just been a hard summer, and I hope that my delay in sending these notes out isn't viewed too harshly.

Hugs, I can't imagine anyone thinking badly of you about that.

I'd hope not, but you never know.

If someone were to think badly, then they must not have lost a loved one.

+1. You said it.

*hug* Losing a loved one is hard, no matter who it is.

I can't imagine anyone thinking poorly of you for the delay. I dread the day I'm in your shoes. I love my mom too much. Stay strong and I will be beaming positive thought your way.

I don't believe that anyone will think badly of you at all. *hugs*

I authorize you to take a few months and then decide to delegate the job to P. :)

(It makes me feel better that it's not just me, girl.)

You take all the time you need. They'll understand.

I don't see how anyone could possibly a have an issue with how long it takes someone to send out a thank you.

I hope with having this chapter closed, it will bring you some peace.

*HUG*
