Hello Karen,
I've been touched by the many poems and the kindness that has been extended to Nomi in his time of great sorrow. I'm sure in days to come he will review these many expressions of sympathy and be overwhelmed by the love that's been expressed.
Well done gal.
Blessings,
Tom

It's always hard to sit back and know someone is suffering the loss of their mate. And especially, a softhearted and caring person whose poems tell us he feels things more than most. Thanks for sharing.

    He has written me twice to thank me and call me an angel.
    He said he has heard of a mean awful Karen , but it sure can't be me. That ruined my day. Karenia helped me mend the rift with Debi Maquette , we are reviewing each other now. But Rachel the scourge of all mankind that you tried to warn me about pulled another fast one, and I blocked her in email and here. A lot of people are catching on to her. I am afraid that she is up to her tricks again. How is she still on here? This depresses me, and I am probably depressing you.
    Sorry :-( aren

    Okay, I will.
    Do you think it will be okay to add this for Nomi?

    you've never endured such pain in this life,

    this unimaginable feeling of losing your wife.

    You know she's in heaven, feeling no pain.

    The ache in your heart is driving you insane.

    Down on your knees, you pray, and you pray.

    You wait, and you listen for someone to say.

    Nomi, my friend, you're in all of our prayers.

    We'll cover your heart with so many layers.

    Lean on your family, call on your friends.

    For we will be with you till all the pain ends.

    We will be with you as it lessens, then ends.
    Moments of joy will replace all that sorrow.
    Until it does you have ours to borrow. :-)

I am sure the prayers of comfort Fanstorians have lifted up are a comfort for Nomi and his family. We have been FanStory friends for a few years and he's a special person. I know he will cherish this poem.

    Begin Again's was the finest condolence letter I have ever read. It choked me up. I am proud to be a member of this space when we treat our folks right. We are uniquely gifted to raise people up and wrap ourselves around a broken heart.
    Thank you for the read, Karen

It is so kind of you and the many FanStory writers who have paid homage to one so memorable. I know what it is to lose a loved one. May Nomi be immeasurably blessed.

    Read Begin Agains letter to Nomi. It is hands down the best condolence clears out the sinuses. That is if you are home, and don't have to worry about leaking on someone. I have been sitting next to some big criers in my day. Thanks for the read. Karen

    Read Begin Agains post. It is hands down the best condolence letter I have ever read. It is far better than mine. My little note wants to run away and hide behind it's brilliance. I cried and everything. Go read it. Bring Kleenex. Thanks for the read. Karen

    You are a very good writer. Now, if you want to mention a character in one of you stories with red hair like we used to have" green eyes, and a shiny smile, lots of smarts , and laughing wit, with a figure guys slobber after, I would not be offended in the least......A person can dream. :-)
reply by Begin Again on 14-Sep-2024
    I'll be happy to work on that, Karen. I, too was born with red hair but no green eyes...I have had a few inmy stories, but another one would never hurt.
    Smiles, Carol

This was a very nice offering of friendship you extended to Nomi. These next few months will be very trying for him. His world had changed forever but I'm sure he has been taking solace with all of the support he has gotten. Gretchen

    I hope you sent a message his way too. He will rely on these for strength in the months to come. My momma had dementia for her last eight years, and wasn't really there much, but when she officially left, it was awful.I was four years old and could not find my Momma. We are made to be with others. Read begin again's letter. It is the best condolence letter I have ever read. Love you,Karen

Thank you for your thoughtful note to Nomi. All of our posts mean a lot to him and probably to his family, too. I can't imagine the sudden loss. He does appreciate his family here.

    He is knee deep in this and in unbelievable pain. 51 years. amazing. I hope what we share with him will help. Even a tiny bit. Time and us sending him love and care will help, little else will really . Love to you and yours Karen
