• New Year's Eve-What'sUP January 1 - 12:18 pm

Another month, another year, gone by so quickly. In our long standing tradition, we pause to remember friends and loved ones that have passed on before us. Today's list includes:

It is hard to believe that my mother has been gone 15 years now...

Where has the time gone?

I am missing Shirley so much here on Pasty Cam. It is very sad not to read her posts that she put so much life into them. May her family and friends find peace that Shirley and her beloved Frank are living life together again in eternity.

Amen, Janie. Remembering Shirley fondly on this New Year's Eve.

I echo Janie's sentiment. I miss Shirley more
than I would have believed. She was just a
breath of fresh air on this site, always so kind
and so happy with just being a part of this. She
will be forever missed.

Also missing my dad who passed away 7 years ago
this month. It feels like just yesterday that I
received that phone call. Now my brother went
through it again this month when he lost his
father-in-law exactly one week after the date of
our father's passing. It's just never easy, but
the holidays are supposed to be a happy time.
God's blessings to everybody who is going through
that feeling of loss.

Rest in peace, Shirley...may we meet again.

In memory of my daughter, Mary Jewell, who passed away December 23rd.

My condolences, Bob. My parents lost their daughter, my sister, Edith, in 1987.

Condolences, Bob. That has to be so hard.
Prayers sent up for you.

Happy 2016.

My condolences to Shirley's family and also to Bob
and all those who lost loved ones this year, and
to all those who are remembering those lost in
years previous.

But also Happy New Year as we all look forward to
2016 filled with new opportunities for peace and
progress.

Bob: It is so very, very hard to lose a child, and there isn't even a
word for it. A parentless child is an orphan. A spouse who has died
leaves the other spouse a widow or widower. Childless describes
someone who cannot have children. There is no word for the
parent whose child has died. Grief isn't as sharp as time goes by,
but there will always be an empty chair on certain days of the year,
and Christmas is one of those days.

Shirley was a very important part of our Pasty Cam family. She is
missed, and like Edie Fitz, will be missed and remembered. In the
words of an old and poignant hymn, "God Be with You til We Meet
Again!"

In loving memory of my aunt , Virgina Osmialowski.
Missing Shirley on Pasty Cam. If you speak their
name they will not be forgotten.
