[leedswolf]

Tragic news indeed. My sincere condolences.

 

[PPB]

Thank you freddeno and leeds for your kind words and thoughts.

Today we will be pouring an extra glass at the Christmas table and celebrating Tommy's life. Not sure how one of Mr PPB's presents is gonna go down this morning. It's 3 lovely photos of his Dad enlarged in a frame. Not sure whether they will upset him even more . Think I may hide it for another day.

Anyway, enjoy the day folks. Hope you all get to open something nice, eat something tasty,and drink something special.

Good call. Next Christmas is probably ideal.

I think you are right Bear.

Never realised it took so long for the funeral over there. Is it because it's Christmas time, or does it usually take weeks? Here, say you die on a Monday, by Wednesday you are buried. The long wait from death to funeral makes it even worse for family members I think

My grandad died just before christmas one year, and my dad is an only child. Obviously they were very close.
For his christmas present I got him 2 old photo's blown up in nice frames. He loved them. We had them on the table where grandad would have sat.

That whole christmas was very subdued, but he loved the photo's.

I think that's a lovely ldea,

I didn't want to take the risk in the end, as it could have gone either way. I always put the photo of my Dad by the Christmas tree on Christmas Day, and was going to do the same with Tommys photos. Will definitely do it next year.
