I am remembering my brother, John.

[CuriousGreek]

I cannot even believed it, when i heard about my uncle's car accident. A drunk man cost my uncle's life. We were closed, even though he was far away in another country. I will always have him in my heart.

[Bonecrusher]

I am remembering both sets of grandparents and my mum.

Also my aunt's stillborn daughter.

However my dad's ashes are still at the undertakers.

You could say we didn't see eye to eye.

Seen here with his daughter Anoushka.....

I was taken to a Ravi Shankar concert at the Liverpool Philharmonic hall when I was about 14. This was perhaps a bit too young ..... I enjoyed it for the first 20mns or so and then got bored, I'm ashamed to say. I appreciated him more when I was older.

R.I.P Ravi. Probably one of the first people to get the world listening to music from a country that was really foreign to them ..... 'alien' music ..... 'world' music.

In remembrance of Maree, the girl that I loved.

I'm sorry I couldn't be there. I'm sorry that I didn't save you.

My heart goes out to you and your family PA

[Indiogene]

My full condolescenes go out to you, PA...and may your father be in a better place. Today is my Dad's Birthday, so I know how it feels to have a father around to be with. Dads like myself are important to us alike Moms, but it takes a man to proudly be a father to his own child(ren).

[Ealdwita]

My deepest sympathies, PA.

[Waspie_Dwarf]

In memory of my young friend Kristy-Leigh. Five years ago you decided it was time to leave this world and 12 days later you departed it forever. I never got the chance to tell you that you were just about the most intelligent person I had ever met.

I hope you realised just how many people you touched in your 20 years on this planet, and how many of them loved you.

“The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.”

[BrookeV]

In memory of my mother, father, and brother. I miss you.

Huell Howser (1945-2013) died last weekend in his home north of Palm Springs. Howser was a host of PBS' series California Gold, as he traveled to all sorts of places for television and he finds something interesting or fascinating, plus nice things to say about them. I had a chance to visit him personally during the 2008 Coachella music fest, when he came up to me and introduce himself, and I had a photo taken of us together. Howser was a frequent on AOL chats about UFOs, so I spotted him again by electronic means. Sad to lose another great person in the world.

Had to put down a dog I had from childhood today, Mikey. Although I've never been one too keen on pets, he was a large part of my childhood memories. R.I.P.

[Hazzard]

To my father-in-law who left us 2 years ago, and Grandmother that just passed away this fall.

The years we've shared have been full of joy.

The memories we've made will go on and on.

You lit up my life, my hopes, and my dreams.

You've opened my eyes to see what it all means.

So now that you're gone how can I forget;

Because you were the greatest out of all I have met.
