Purrs Please...
I'd like to request purrs for a dear friend who passed away
unexpectedly. She was a wonderful, caring soul whose family dumped her in a nursing home because they couldn't be bothered to care for her. I just received the news - the obituary gave no info, can't get a hold of any of her family and the nursing home won't give out any info. I am saddened that there was no service at all...I doubt that was *her* wish. Thanks Joani |

Maybe you could get together some of your friends and have a small, private memorial? Even if they didn't know her, it might be helpful for you. And even if there's no clergy present, just having a ritual for her passing can be very healing.

"Joani H" I'd like to request purrs for a dear friend who passed away unexpectedly. She was a wonderful, caring soul whose family dumped her in a nursing home because they couldn't be bothered to care for her. I just received the news - the obituary gave no info, can't get a hold of any of her family and the nursing home won't give out any info. I am saddened that there was no service at all...I doubt that was *her* wish. Thanks Joani I'm so sorry to hear of these sad circumstances. Some families can be so mean and selfish. What they did to your friend is just wrong IMO. Your friend was very blessed to have you in her life. You are such a sweet person. . Purrs for your friend and for you and your saddened heart to heal. . Love and purrs sent from our home to you. Kyla |

Oh Joani, that's so sad. Purrs on the way for your friend and you (it
doesn't sound like her family deserve them). -- Hugs, CatNipped See our clowder at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/ See the RPCA FAQ site, by Mark Edwards, at: http://www.professional-geek.com/rpcablog/ "Joani H" wrote in message ...

Purrs and prayers for your friends trip to the next level. Those who did
this will one day be old themselves, may their memories last at least long enough to know what they did to this lady. "Joani H" wrote in message ...

Services *are* for the living - those of us whose lives she touched very much need to celebrate her life - as a group. I, we, feel sad that even her passing seemed unworthy of effort by her family to let us know. We shall celebrate her life anyway. Altho her body is no longer breathing, I find comfort in believing her spirit will always be with me. Joani |
