oh Pauline how tragic, My heart, prays and thoughts go out to the family.   It must have been a big shock for all at the church that day.

Take care Angie xx 

 Hugs Pauline xx That is so sad, thoughts are with his family xx

How tragic for teh family - we'll be praying for them... 

Aww sorry to hear about your friend Pauline that is so very sad . Hugs xxxx

Oh Pauline, what a terrible shock.  I am so glad he passed in his church surrounded by people that will look out after his poor wife and surrounded by those that cared so much about him.  A quick passing is all we can hope for when there is faith that the better of our existence is waiting.  I hope his family can cope,such a shock for them.   I bet your Grandsons can support that poor boy, I send best wishes that they can get through this very hard time.

 Its so sad isn't it

You know I take his grandson to school with my boys so poor lad is completely shocked

How sad and shocking for the family, to loose their loved one so suddenly. It is not a nice thing to witness a passing but it is easier if you know what is coming and have some time to prepare, but suddenly like that, it's a shock for all concerned.

My thoughts go out to the family and yourselves as you all face the loss of your dear friend.

Love , Winnie.xxxx

so sorry for that person's family and friends. I can't imagine directly witnessing another's death..... I was even spared the death of the one person most important to me, my grandmother. I was able to talk to her on the phone, minutes before she died, but I didn't directly witness it because we were continents away.

It's hard to be faced with our own, or our own loved ones mortality.  I hope you, and your friend's family are coping.

So sorry to hear of your loss. What a horrible shock for his family. I hope in the long run there will be some comfort to have been with him and the lack of illness/suffering. When someone knows for certain where they are going, it is still hard for those left behind. And, sixty-something is still pretty young.

We also had a valuable member of our church collapse yesterday in the service. However, he celebrated his 90th birthday last week and a month before had suffered a heart attack. As far as I know he is not seriously ill. (It distracted our Pastor, who was suffering badly from jetlag already, having just got back from conference in New Zealand, but he managed to collect his thoughts and soldier on!) So we are blessed by Harry's presence among us for a little longer!

Its always sad to lose someone close to us, my sympathies to his wife and family,

Kindest regards,

Tessa

 Sending my deepest sympathy to his wife and family. The passing of a loved one is so sad, I'm sure with the support and love from family and friends, she will not feel, so alone.

My thoughts are also with you Pauline & your husband.
