(((Holly))) You are loved. Cherish the memories of him and find delight in them.
Oh my dear lady. I wish your father peace.
I will keep you and your family close to my heart and in my constant prayers-much love to you, sweetie.
Oh my gosh - do you know the song "Be Not Afraid"? John Angotti?
GNTLGNT - that was just....you know. Lovely.
We sing it at church regularly.
Lovely, lovely song. I've only heard John's version. But wow, I play it over and over sometimes when I'm low.We sing it at church regularly.
Other songs that helped me - Indigo Girls - they have two very sort of uplifting/defeat your demons songs: Prince of Darkness (weird but true) and Secure Yourself.
This is one that comforts me. James wrote it after the death of his father left him lost for a while--long back story there, but it's his own reminder that you're never alone. If I get the priestly okay, I'd like it played when I kick off.
My Father was taken suddenly in this same month in 1991. I miss him terribly.
Hold tightly to the light and sweet memories.....

(((Holly))) We are all thinking of you. About work i suppose it is different for different persons in situations like these. I know that the work and the support of my working comrades helped me a lot when my father died unexpected 7 years ago. But you should do what you feel is right for you. comforting vibes are sent.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, Holly. I know you will find comfort in the many wonderful memories you have of both your father and your father-in-law.
Gosh, I love this guy!
Thanks again for all your kind words everyone.
Yes, work is actually therapeutic in a way - it's so busy that I can forget for a while, somewhat. I've asked a few people to check over the things I'm doing just to make sure I don't make any mistakes - accounting is not a good place for mistakes. So far, so good.
(I know I was gone for a week but...) still here if you need me. (((Holly-Polly))) 
Oh, dearest, I'm so sorry. I think the work is good, because we find our big Joy by adding up the little joys, of which productively working is one. Hugs.
I'm so sorry for your loss, Holly. My prayers to you and your family.
So sorry for your loss. It's never easy to lose a loved one. Time and family will help ypu to remember the good times and hopefully smile soon.
