I was doing good when my mom told me Friday morning but at the funeral home on Sunday I was a complete mess. I still can't believe he is gone. I hope you get to feeling better. Like everyone kept telling me on Sunday, we will see them again someday.

Thank you Pam. I know a lot of people probably think, it was just your Uncle, not like a parent or spouse, but you never know how close someone is to their Aunt or Uncle. I was planning on having my Uncle walk me down the aisle when I get married, because I'm not close to my dad. I normally am ok with it, time really does help. Its just one of those things that can sneak up on ya, and really get you down out of no where.
I am so sorry that you lost your uncle. I know all the cliche's about "He's in a better place," or "He's watching over you." After hearing that so many times, you realize its just BS ppl say when they don't know what else to say. I've said those things too! But the best thing I can say is that you have the memories of him, and be thankful you were blessed to spend the time with him that you did. It is sad that they're gone, but think about how lucky we were to even have that, when some people don't ever get to have someone like them in their lives! We were the lucky ones!
