Thanks Jan. I might have to sleep for a fortnight after all the moving stuff I have done in the past week. With a bit of luck they might be finished in 2/3 weeks xx

What's up jan? Why the freezing?

Its still really hard without him Jan. I know I will never get over it. I have learned that sometimes I will just cry when someone says something. Those who know me understand. And those with compassion get it. And anyone else I don't care how they react. I can't stop the tears from coming still.
We are coping and doing the best we can. Thank you for being so sweet and asking after us. I hope all is well with you and that your family is doing fantastic as well. Take care Jan xx

Hi Jan. It is difficult. Its still so fresh. We've had a few problems Rudy always solved for us. And we came thru okay. He taught his son well to fix things. He was cremated and his ashes sit in his chair for now. I miss his banter and his voice. His humming and his jokes. We've had his memorial service and his obituary has been taken care of. I was so lucky to be his wife, and I am lost without him. Thank you so much for being his friend. I know he enjoyed your conversations I heard many of the stories. You made him laugh as well.
I am happy your kitties are all fine. Take care of yourself. I don't know when or if I will open his garden again. We need time to heal. And yes we still have the roosters. The lady who owns them stopped in on Sunday evening and she heard of Rudy's passing then. Take care of yourself Jan. I hope you are doing well xx

We are still a mess Jan. I feel like a husk. I pick up his ashes on Tuesday and we will have a memorial ceremony for him before the end of the month. We miss him something awful for sure. I hope you and your sons are well and your kitty cats too. Our cat has been looking for him. I'm sure she knows something is up. We aren't the happy people we used to be. Take care Jan. Thanks for thinking of us xx

Hi Jan. I am so sad. I want you to know how much your friendship meant to Rudy. He was so sad when Jess died. And he loved the pups your son had. He has always disliked the weatherman and he couldn't stand how he got it wrong so much and still got to keep his job!
Our  son and I spend a lot of time crying and bringing up memories. I don't know how we are going to get thru this grief. Thank you for being Rudy's friend Jan. Take care xx

See you when you come back Jan. Take care.xx

I, sorry to hear about your friend Rudy it seems awfully sudden and that makes it even more upsetting. Take care whilst you mourn. ❣❤

I know Rudy appreciated all your stories. He genuinely liked you and enjoy the things you told him about the pets and your family. Sadly my soul mate moved on this morning. We are grieving and so sad. Its been such a battle. At least he's not in pain anymore. That's a small comfort. Thank you for being his friend. I know you will miss his sense of humour and off the cuff remarks. I'm at a loss what to do right now. I need some time to figure things out. Take care Jan. Pats to Tom xx

I honestly don't know if Rudy will be coming home again. His circumstances changed so drastically nearly overnight. We spent the day with him and he wasn't really aware we were there. Its up in the air right now. If you could send a prayer we would be grateful. I will keep you posted. Take care Jan xx
