So very true my poor daddy doesn’t know what to do with himself ,You will find your way it’s just going to take a little time . I’m glad you have family close , it’s going to take so time for them also They will probably become your new pest . Thankfully you have a wonderful skill/hobby to keep your mind busy .Peace be with you during this time and always.

“Become my new pests?” Believe me, Trish had the kids all trained well. I have been and still am out manned, out flanked, and out gunned on all sides. This has been going on for some time, and they are like Trish on steroids. At least they don’t have me wearing pastel colors or polyester jumpsuits…ya gotta draw a line somewhere!!!

I mean, when I duct taped my old work boots back together, you’d have thought I shot their new puppy. A fellow can’t catch an even break….

Sending you 💓 today dana. I know that you know this but plaese remember that Trish chose you to be her partner in life and chose you to be the person who gets to keep her legacy alive after she left this world. To me one of the most greatest gifts. It is not an easy gift to handle though. I do hope that Trish is sending you messages of faith and strength that will help you get to the point of smiling and loving the memories of your sweet Trish.

You are a natural born story teller, and the capacity to tell stories is perhaps the greatest gift of God given to mankind. Thank you for sharing yours with us. If I am not here at Paine TV for the next several days, I send you my warmest thoughts and prayers this Christmas.

Hey Dana,

There’s nothing wrong with dreaming of hopping a train to anywhere! At least in my book. I’ve thought the same things for many years and it was only the responsibility of being a single Mom that stopped me from doing so.

I’m sure in Trish’s attempt to conform you to some of societal ways, you probably adapted enough to get by moving forward. As you are blessed to have us, we are so blessed to have you in this Painiac Family. I couldn’t imagine it any other way.

Even though Trish is not physically here, her spirit will always be a whisper away when you want to talk to her.

We’ll be here with you as long as God is willing. So grateful you’re in our lives.

I pray you find some peace in knowing that you’re surrounded by lots of love everywhere you turn.

May God’s grace & peace soothe your heart now & always.
