gary0618 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Please join me in offering our sincere condolences to Kneehighs. His Mother passed away earlier this week. As far as I know, it was a sudden illness that effected her. She died at home with her husband by her side. Kneehighs is now enroute to his parents home. May she rest in peace. .

fastfreddy2 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 This is unwelcome news. I'd like to add my condolences to KH on the sad loss of his mother. My best wishes go out to the rest of his family. I'm sure she was a great inspiration, and will be missed by them all. .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba136 Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Sorry to hear this bit of news. I know KH appreciates our caring and understanding....and, if there is anything we can do to help in any way, I know y'all will second my saying that we stand ready to do whatever we can. All he has to do is let us know. And, we're there for him. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.

kneehighs Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Gary0618--thanks for posting this. fastfreddy2--I appreciate your words. Indeed, she was the family Queen Bee, the one who would rally the family troops for our yearly gathering. And that was an inspiration spoken of by everyone at the funeral. Bubba136--WOW! Such words of encouragement are sincerely appreciated! I think I'm doing pretty good though. You know, there is a time to weep and a time to rejoice, and I think I'm rejoicing now that my mom is in a better place, absent hip problems that were caused from a major car accident...and she died in her sleep. Thanks. Stilettoscot--Thanks Scott! I consider you friend now, can't wait to meet in person. shyguy--I appreciate your decency. Pam--Gracias por tus palabras mi amigo. I thank you all for putting your comments here. In an odd way, this trial is helping me separate out who my sincere friends are. Those who are there for me when I am weak are those who I hold dear to my heart. Thanks guys. Feminine Style . Masculine Soul. Skin In The Game.

jmc Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Words, whether written or spoken, are always so empty at times like these. No words, no matter how eloquent, no matter how sincere, can fill the gaping void left by the loss of a loved one. We wish -- and dare I say "pray" -- that you can find comfort. Have a happy time!

kneehighs Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 bladerunner--I appreciate you sharing your perspective on how it takes time to heal. jmc--beautiful words in motion there. Love it. Just to let everyone know, I am holding my own in this time. There is a time to mourn and a time to heal, a time to cry and a time to laugh, a time to hope and a time to move on. I see these "times" as occurring within a short time span. If a good memory of my mom makes me happy, then it's a time to laugh. If seeing a friend cry makes me feel sad, then it's a time to cry. It's like I have a balanced perspective on this entire issue and will allow myself to experience a full gamut of emotions, both good and bad. Pretty soon it will be a time to move on and put this behind myself and hopefully everyone else here as well. Thank you all for your support. It is truly encouraging.

admirer5577 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I have to agree with jmc, words seem often so empty at times like this. Have to admit that I have seen this thread before but didn't really know what to write to you, also a bit harder when english isn't my native language. But I have thought about you a lot the last couple of days and hoped that all went as good as it could go. My parents are still around but I remember when my grandparents passed away some years ago and it is like you say, there are times for crying and times for laughter. But one has to remember the happy moments and keep those memories because they can never be taken away from you. Talk to you later. BTW, I saw you tried to call me but I must have been out, in the shower or something because I saw it first on monday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Histiletto Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I would like to join this heeling group and offer my support to you, your family, and friends. There are so many feelings and thoughts that rush through in these periods of loosing those we care about. Be in mind that this separation is only for a short duration in the eternity of being, for this life can't be the totality of our existence. Our forebearers have lived, so that we could be. Let us rejoice in them and continue living to make them proud of whom they have given life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puma Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 There are no words to express how we are meant to feel at such a sad time, but please be assured KH, that you and your family are in the thoughts of those that are important to you.

Danielinheels Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Hey, KH. I'm a bit late to the news. My condolences to you and yours. As far as comforting words, I'm not sure your stance on religion, but this passage from Lamentations comes to mind: "For men are not cast off by the Lord forever; though he brings grief, he will show compassion. So great is his unfailing love, for he does not willingly bring affliction or grief to the children of men." With that said, wishing you the best, friend. Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. - Oscar Wilde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roniheels Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 My mother passed away two years ago very suddenly. And being an only child, that was a very lonely feeling. I am sorry I am late with my condolences. I have been on the road for my company for a while. But I do know what yo went through and I hope you are coping with the help of family and friends.
