[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 137227"] Barbara...I am so very sorry. (Hugs). The memorial service idea sounds like a very good idea. My situation was different in that my mother died young and my father took it very badly. I handled the funeral arrangements, but there was no burial. We had a service at sea many years later at the insistence of myself and my mother's best friend. Right after her passing, I visited my father often and brought him gifts of food. I often called as well. Our situation was strained though because he was a very difficult person. Be sure to take care of yourself. I know in my situation, I was trying very hard to reach out to my remaining parent (ironic and sad cause he was an abusive difficult child), but was forgetting to nurture myself through the grieving process. So, I just wanted to mention to you to make sure you take the time you need for yourself to grieve your loss. (Hugs). [/QUOTE]
