My sister passed away ... (Page 2)

Phil,

Sorry for your loss.  Wish there were words that would help. 

Sorry for your loss Phil.

So sorry for your loss.  Sounds like your sister was an amazing woman.  Prayers for you and your family.

Full of laughter and light to the end ... sounds like someone else I know.

{MELON PRESS} and prayers for all of Tina's loved ones.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Phil.  You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.  I can't imagine losing my sister.

My condolences, Phil.

Cancer does suck.

Thank you to all of you who responded.  It helps me feel a little better.

The day after I run my first Ultra 50 mile (signed up back in April before I knew anything about the cancer) is the wake.  My best friend (who's brother died from cancer last year) accepted to be my sherpa on race day, and then said he would drive me the 3 plus hours back across the state to go to the wake and then drive the 3 hours back home later that day.  I owe big time.

My heart goes out to you and your family, so sorry to hear about losing your strong, courageous sister to such an awful disease.  Yes, cancer effing sucks.

My deepest condolences to you and your family. I'm so sorry to read of this loss.

Phil, I am very sorry  for your loss.  

Some good things rose from this:
1). I believe my sister heard me asking for strength several times during the Ultra 50 mile the day before her wake this past Sat. and I did complete the race.
2). I met a number of relatives that I haven't seen in over 30 years, and connected back with 2 of my sisters.

However, I will be out of work for the rest of this week due to some medical issue that decided to appear at the same time this weekend - the physical continuous pain won't subside, and I may have to go in for an emergency minor operation.

Be good, everyone, and don't forget those hugs and such.
