The tears have not slowed yet.
I hope you don't mind me posting a copy of one card I got from a complete stranger. Her heart was indeed golden.

That's a lovely card Gremlin.
We all have different ways of dealing with the hard knocks that are dealt us. I was a teenager when my grandfather died and I couldn't understand why my grandmother in her 80s didn't seem to shed a tear, on the other hand I was in my thirties when my mother died and my father in his early 60s couldn't stop crying. If you're like him you'll have many an anecdote that you'd like to share and I see you've had several offers of people offering to lend an ear. I've just had a peek at the Blog section on accyweb to see if you've written anything about the joys of puppy walking, or any other hobbies to share with the rest of us .... I hope your grief eases sooner rather than later. Take care.
Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears, but laugh
And talk of me as if I were beside you. I loved
You so—‘twas heaven here with you.
