Dear Min
I haven't been on the board lately so have only just read your post.

I am so sorry to hear that Peter has passed away so unexpectedly, and am sending you and your family my condolences at this difficult time.

Hugs and prayers

I am ensconced in Fishguard, looking out of a picture window 10' by 6'… and framed in the window, is a photo-perfect combination of landscape and seascape. Bottom right I can see the old harbour of Lower Town where they filmed Dylan Thomas's 'Under Mlkwood' in 1972, with Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor, Peter O'Toole, Glynis Johns and Victor Spinetti. Middle left I can see the new harbour (1900) built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel and home to to filming of 'Moby Dick' with Gregory Peck and Richard Baseheart in 1956. The rest of the scapes of land and sea form the background of my childhood.

I see all this and report it to you by dint of a dongle that grants me access to the internet… and in return I learn of the passing of Peter.

The passing of Gordon, Gaye and now Peter, in such quick succession has, I am sure, left all the contributors to this forum shocked and dismayed. Some of us… those who followed Min's posts closely are, like myself, feeling bereft.

I was dropped off by the rest of the gang of my brothers and sisters (7 of them) after a morning out… they have carried on while I came home to sort out my dongle and put my feet up.

Min, the shock and pain I am feeling over the loss of Peter is small compared to your own… but shock and pain it is… and anger… his death seems obscene some how… the last thing I expected.

I am so glad my family and Janet are with me… I will be comforted by their enjoyment of the holiday and the wonderful feel of camaraderie in the house… and Janet, as always.

I hope that you are surrounded by love… don't drown Min, swim and survive. I and all of your cyber friends are with you… I just wish I was there beside you… just for a brief moment, to say how much I care for you… my true friend.

Much love,

Dear Dai,
I was upstairs preparing Peters uniform for his funeral and you came into my mind. I was a little upset that we had not heard from you and worried that you were still an inpatient.
You must have read my mind, as I came downstairs to turn of the 'Apple' which was playing Peters favourite Louis Armstrong . We have all the time in the world…………….tears streaming down my face.
Our children have gone to make some arrangements for afterwards and I found myself alone for the 1st time.
We./I were totally unprepared for Peters passing. In every way.
The circumstances were my son a captain in the Merchant Navy is always at sea, and my Daughter was oddly at sea too on a cruise.
Peter was rushed into the ITu and by a miracle Tony came home so I was able to have him by our side at the end. Whilst Emma was too far at see to get any signal.
How ironic is that.
Peter is coming home tomorrow, and the funeral will take place on Wednesday. There have been many tears and also much laughter, on the voyage of discovery which I had hoped would take place later.
I hope I have the strength to see me through the time when they all have to go there own ways, Tony to Dubai where he was due to start a new part of his career last week, and Emma home to her children.
But I will always look on here for comfort from my very dear cyber friends
Inconsolable

Dai has a far better way with words than I do but I am sure his eloquence speaks for all of us.

I hope Wednesday is a great celebration of Peter's life and I will be thinking of you.

Thanks to Eve for pointing out the attachments. What lovely photos and what treasured memories they will be

Much love and hugs from just one of your cyber friends Gillxxx

My Dear, Dear Min,

How sad and upset I was to read your unexpected posting. Everything that can be said has been said by all your ?Cyber Friends? and I am just no good at condolences. My heart goes out to you. Remember we are all still your ?Cyber Friends? so perhaps we will still have the pleasure of your company. May your God be with you at this time.

Love ? Vasbyte

Hi Min

I just know tomorrrow will a wonderful celebration of Peter's life, as Gordon's was. I still have a problem with 'celebration' I wanted and still do, rage against the injustice of losing my husband! But I went along with the flow, and the very funny yorkshire vicar!.
You will be in my thoughts tommorow, I am so sorry you family is not around you for long, as mine are all the time!
Dear min keep in touch I find a lot of comfort on this site byt so many tears, where on earth do tears come from do they never dry up!?

With love Sarah xx
