I'm terribly sorry to hear this, Jim. Twenty five years together is awesome, there are lots of wonderful memories, aren't there?
May she rest in peace indeed, and remember you always have friends here to help get you through rough times.

No Opels were harmed in the filming of this movie.
However two Mustangs, a Pinto, and a Capri were hospitalized.
One Mustang was euthanized the next morning.

Jim, I am sorry to hear about Patricia.
I only know you from what you write and have done for the Opel folks, but it sounds like you two were very close.
Glad you were able to spend all that time together.
Thinking of you.

Jim, as I read the posts here, tears started to flow. I can't add to what others have written. I know the feelings you're going through, I lost my parents and sister through illness and have always wished I spent more time with them. To have had the time you did with Patricia, even to the end is priceless. The hurt and pain will pass with time, but the memories remain. Cherish them.

Jim,
My sincere condolences on your loss. My Mum passed away last year from cancer and one thing she said which has helped: "Do not mourn my death, celebrate my life"
My thoughts are with you...

Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly and for the same reason.

Jim,
My wife Mary and I are deeply sorry, that you have lost your love and companion Patricia, its nice to hear that you were with Patricia, when she started her journey to the unknown.

I know what cancer can do with your state of mind, my wife Mary had breast canser three years ago.

Our deepest condolences to you and your family.

May Patricia be free of her burden and rest in peace, remember Patricia in your hart.
