So far my life has real changed in the past couple months Tom Griffin my love and companion since 1965 has left this life after many years of declining health due to Parkinson’s Disease. At the time of his passing he was completely helpless, blind and bedridden. I had been his caregiver for over 10 years. Watching his declining health broke my heart and I did all I could to make his life bearable and never lost hope in the joy simple pleasures could bring. Feeding him his favorite foods and playing his favorite music. I wish there was more I could do to just have him a little longer. Tom was a follower of the principals found in ancient philosophies of Taoism and Buddhist traditions. I had a memorial for him on day 49 and we will have another on day 100.
I am still listening to the YouTube music playlist that he listened to in the days before his passing and am knitting hats to donate to the Shenango on the Green Oct. 6 Benefit Craft Show.
