Peg posted this message in the Village Gym this morning:

Sorry to post this here amidst so much good news, but I didn't know where else to go with it.
Nick's son went to be with His Lord and Savior in the early hours of this morning. It is a rough time for all of the family
and the multitude of people whose lives have been touched by this wonderful kind and loving man. Words cannot express
what is felt for him, but he is at peace now and he was content in the knowledge of where he was going. He was 53.
Hugs, Peg

I'm so very sorry for your loss, Peg. I'm sure this is devastating to your family, and I know you will miss him every day. Nothing I can say will take away the hurt your are feeling, but may it comfort you to know that I am thinking of you and your family and sending healing prayers your way.

Take care.

Peg,
Amen!
There are really only two requirements when it comes to exercise.
One is that you do it. The other is that you continue to do it.

Well, it is the morning after the Memorial and Graveside services and the real beginning of life without Ken. Nick almost dialed Ken's number this morning, but caught himself. The days will pass and time will make is easier to bear, we know, but the Real is finally becoming real.

Most of the week Nick has had an infection in his surgery wound, with a lot of pain, so has been on strong pain meds. We have been back to the Dr twice this week! I believe it has helped him get through, but now that is easing up and his reality is truly setting in.

We appreciate the caring comments and prayers from everyone and they do help. Also, we had awesome weather throughout - lots and lots of beautiful sunshine and warm temperatures - I love it anytime I don't have to wear a coat! Sunshine always helps put a smile in your heart!

Now we move on.

Thanks,
Peg

Thanks..we are doing as well as can be expected. Day by day, you know. That's all any of us have, anyway.
God bless, and thanks for your prayers and warm gestures.
