Thank you for your comments my friends and i will pass these along to Beverly. Additionally, today will be Gordie's funeral at 1PM EST, 12PM CST, 11AM MST, 10PST ... so if you would, please honor our dear friend's request below and send a great big virtual hug her way. ~ Thank You ~
Beverly asks:
Friends...I would please ask, if you could find it in your hearts (even if you are plowing through the stores searching bargains that when it might come close to 2:00PM AST in your area that if you could think about me for a moment, say a pray that I can dig deep and find the strength from somewhere as I have this celebration of Gordie's life and our life together.
These are the three hymns that are to be played at the funeral.
Amazing Grace - Elvis Presley -

i don't know if this will go to group or just to you steve, please convey my condolences and sorrows to beverly for this very trying time. am sorry that i don't know her from the man in the moon, but am sure that with your knowledge, she has to be one of the "good ones". can't imagine life without the love of my life. was our 27 last Oct. 22. people, such as beverly and yourself, and nearly half of all others will go through this at some time in their lives. the strength of your souls attest to the love that has been lost. may the world look brighter with each new day keeping beverly and gordie in my thoughts - milkman joe

Hi my dear Friends:I want so much to thank you all for your prayers for Gordie and myself.But, it is with a very lonely, sad, and completely broken heart that I musttell you I lost my Gordie at 8:15 this morning. Gordie has been through alot the last seven months...but never for a moment did I think he wouldbe called home.We have battled many things together in our married lifebut guess this was just too much of a battle for Gordie to overcome. I cansay all the words one hears when a loved one is called home, but rightnow in spite of my faith, they ring so empty.I am now alone...my soul mate and loving husband in his way is gone...leaving mehere alone. I feel my purpose in life is over..gone forever...but to liveforever in my heart, in my soul and my being.Gordie was my reason for living, my reason for getting up each day totake care of him and his needs. What is ahead for me....well, I just don'tknow...but will try to hold together until I do right by Gordie.Have all arrangements and plans to make over the day couple of days...soI might be away for some time.I ask for your prayers selfishly for myself.....I am in need prayers, if youwould be so kind.Love and hugs to all.Bev......On 23 November 2010 14:05, Margaret Sherrill <celeste@misfitscafe.biz> wrote:

Hello all:Sorry I haven't been around for the past few days but Gordie has not been well....and todaytook him by ambulance to hospital.He is in really quite serious, although they will do everything possible to bring him through..He has pneumonia in both lungs, oxygen started immediately, possibility of blood clots in right leg (leg of brokenhip) as well as chest, blood counts totally out of control, potassium for one way too high, medicationgiven to try to lower, is really dehydrated, had trouble inserting IV....10 attempts bythree different RN's....then on the 11th try by another, success. He is black and blue and so many veinsblown but he never said a word. That is my Gordie...never complains and so mild mannered.He is so very weak and his colour is not just pale, he is ashen although a little colour was coming backjust before I left....just arrived home a short time ago. Going to do more blood work as well as cat scansand x-ray's in AM. And no desire to eat, which has been gradually getting worse.Taken from ER to a bed in a special area...only two patients per RN and Gordie's bed is right next to the nursing station and the nurse will keep a close eye and will call if his condition changes. That is one call I definitely don't want to receive.Friends, if you could find it in your heart to send forth some special thoughts and prayers for Gordie's recoveryand return home so we can have a little more time together...fragile as he might be...I would so dearlyappreciate it. We have been through a lot together...and these past seven months have been very hard on Gordie...he has been in a lot of pain and discomfort, but kept trying his best to walk again. Also there is a lot of confusionwhich is also complicating matters as well. When I am there with him, he looks to me to answer as I have for all these 33 years (October 27th past). So I hate to leave him, but I am going to try to get some sleep (honestlybelieve that is not going to happen...can't close my mind off) because maybe there are going to be more rough daysahead.God bless you all...and if I don't get a chance later on, I want to wish all my American friends a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving Day on Thursday. Spent time with loved ones,love one another, enjoy each other's company, ...because those moments are precious and we never know when "the present" might become "the past".Thanking you so much.Hugs and love to all.Bev......http://beverlylewis.blogspot.com/--
