Luke's Last Day

[Luke and Margaret]

I want to thank you all so much for your messages. I have been sitting here reading them feeling overwhelmed by you, and by the comfot you give me.

Today I wrote about Luke’s last day on our blog:
http://lukeandmargaret.blogspot.com/

I am grieving deeply, most assuredly, but when you read about how he chose to leave us you will understand when I say it is hard to be devastated by sadness when he was so incredibly gracious and generous on his last day. You may need kleenex, I warn you now. But this is the best way I can think of to …. well read it and you’ll see what I mean.

He is, was, quite simply, a gift of a man.

Dear Margaret,
I read your blog. I can’t stop crying. I don’t know what to say. I wish I could say the right thing. You are such a courageous, wonderful lady.
Yours in friendship,

Margaret,

I read your blog. I don’t know what to say. It must have been so beautiful and yet so difficult. I am glad that you had that time with Luke and that you can always have that memory. It sounds like we all missed out greatly on having had the pleasure of meeting Luke and spending time with him in person.

I think of you all the time Margaret, and pray that you and your family are alright at this time.

It is obvious through your grief and sadness that you realize how truly blessed you are to have shared life with Luke. He was equally blessed to have found you.

Thank you for sharing your story with us. God bless you and yours.

God bless and comfort you all.
Your friend,
