My step daughter texted me the other day to let me know that my wife's ashers are guna be buried on the 30th September I'm not looking forward to even though I will have her and her brother with m,itsguna be a sad day has anyone been through this
Hello Andrew,
I worried about this too before my Lin's ashes were interred but I handled it much better than I thought and, like Terry, we went somewhere after and reminisced about LIn over drinks in the local pub. I was far, far less emotional than at her funeral. So hopefully it will not be too hard for you on the day.
I have had more emotional moments since then on certain anniversaries etc.
Best wishes,
Derek
