+With the Saints give rest, O Christ, to the soul of Thy servant, where there is no pain, no sorrow, nor sighing, but life everlasting. Thou only art immortal, who didst make and fashion man. But from the earth were we mortals made, and unto the earth we return, as Thou didst say when Thou madest me, "For dust art thou, and unto dust shall thou return," where all we mortals all shall go; making our funeral dirge the song: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
+With the spirits of the righteous give rest, O Savior, to the soul of Thy departed servant, and keep him in the blessed life with Thee, O Lover of man. In the place of Thy rest, O Lord, where all Thy Saints repose, give rest also to the soul of Thy servant for Thou alone art the Lover of mankind.
+Glory to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit: Thou art the God Who descended to hell and loosed the chains of the captives. Give rest, O Lord, to the soul of Thy servant. Amen.

luv that sucks. . .I'm sure the government has an emergency passport thing. . .you should look into it.
*hugs* Remember that death isn't an end but a part of the life we all have to live. He's gone to a better place and if you miss him, it's okay.
I don't know what else to say so *big hugs!*

ok some exciting news has come from my dads passing I will post what I posted in my blog...
ok some of you may or may not know that I have at least 2 half sisters and two half brothers. the two half sisters I have known of since I was little, one even cane to visit twice. one half brother I knew of since maybe when I was 28 or 30 but dad claimed he was not his son but would not do tests to prove or disprove this and another half brother I found out I had after mum passed away when I was asking about his other son. I asked for more info and he asked on which son. I found out that when dad left the women a few years later she married and dad signed the papers to have my brothers name changed to her husbands name. well just after I found out I had this brother like 1 or 2 days later his uncle contacted me asking about my dad...he had seen my family tree online and written. I learned a little more about my brother but he was not at liberty to share anything much because his sister didnt want any contact etc. well after my dad died I received a email from someone unknown...I had a sense it was this brother even tho his name was different from what his uncle had told me. I wrote back and have waited days to find out.
this morning I had the best news ever... It is my brother. and better yet he wants to get to know me

thanks guys I am quite excited about having a brother, I grew up with my two full blood sisters and knew of my two half sisters in USA but didnt know I had any brothers till maybe 25 or so and still don't know who that one is...I happened to be asking about that one and told dad so tell me more about my brother.... he asked which one. that was about a year after mums death. his uncle two days after I was talking to dad saw my online family tree and contacted me.. we built a friendship but his siter didnt want him in contact and so he had to stop he felt family was more important...he did however forward my emails to my brother hoping he would one day contact me.... the uncle died about a year later. at the time my brother couldnt contact me because he had told his mum he wouldnt have contact with my dad...so after my dad died he was no longer under that obligation and used the emails his uncle sent to contact me this was a answer to prayer since the uncle was praying and kept telling me to pray and not to give up
