I am told that Sue’s remains have been cremated. It is a shock to know that my beautiful wife is no more. I know that it was her choice, mine too. Also I think that her soul has ascended or graduated as my church friends say. It is still hard though to think of this lovely woman being reduced to ashes. It is yet another thing to come to terms with. I wonder if I ever will.

I felt the same when I collected Mark, how could he be just ashes, his lovely smile, now gone, it’s heart breaking, I will never get over it. Can’t see now for crying.

if you are religious (i am not) you will believe that his soul, him are gone to somewhere else, all you are cremating is the body, not them

I am not sure what I believe, he must be somewhere, the body has gone, but surely some part of his being will be somewhere out there, I did read that a scientist said that the soul does live on. But who knows, in my heart I think he is still here.
The thing is that someone’s body is part of how they were. My son was tall and dark, with lovely eyes and a beautiful smile. Unbelievably that has now all gone, so even if/when we meet again, his physical presence won’t there. I can’t come to terms with the fact that all we have of him now is ashes and a lock of hair. I just ache to give him a big hug and I can’t.
