Cleita's husband, Aidan has passed.
Edited on Thu Dec-23-04 06:19 PM by brook
I searched the archives and did not see anything so I hope this is appropriate. I just opened an email from her and she said Aidan died last night.


Theirs has been a long battle - she has been at his side through thick and thin of it. I only met 'himself' once - the lilt of his Gaelic brough (sp?) made me want to sit down and listen to him for hours - but he was ill and that was impossible. My heart aches for her.

4. That's terrible
:hug: to Cleita...and my heart goes out to her. I dont know what it's like to lose a loved one, other than a pet - and I truly dread that time.

14. May he be in peace... and may Cleita find comfort
in knowing that he was in her comforting presence and loving aura when he needed it most.

My prayers to Cleita - much love, graceful and loving friend, may you find moments of comfort and solace in your joint memories and may those moments give you a few moments of respite in your grief.

28. I just talked to brook and she told me she had posted this.
My heartfelt thanks to everyone for their kind words, thoughts and prayers.

My husband Aiden died Wednesday evening, December 22nd, in his chair quietly and quickly. There was a small period that he breathed hard before he expired. By the time I was able to summon 911 and a neighbor, a doctor, it was too late to save him, but they tried very hard.

I will be posting my thoughts about him and our marriage in the Astrology and Spirituality forum in the next day or so as soon as I collect my thoughts.

Again, thank you DUers for your kindness.
