About Me
Retired from industry and headed into ministry as God leads. I am a born again believer and still do not know why God loves me so very much. I have varied interests of hod rods, fishing, golf and teaching Scripture.

Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a Partner/SpouseI reently lost my wife of 40 years to lung disease. I'm in the middle of grieving but sometimes I feel as thought I don't experience the deep grief I;ve heard expressed so often. Our marriage was idel, we both loved each otherdeeply and I do really miss her, but I feel as though something is missing in my grieving process. It has been about 10 weeks now and I;ve yet to loose control. Oh, I;ve cried and feel the loss, but it just that ... well I feel like I've not come to grips with it yet.
