Popular Post Nickel Falls Posted July 25, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) I haven't been on much lately. As some of you may know, my wife died suddenly last week. With the help of patterns by Botas Helder, I finally made it out to the shop yesterday to cut a couple portraits of her for the memorial service today. Her name is Connie, and I hope you see the likeness Edited July 25, 2022 by Nickel Falls Roberta Moreton, ChelCass, Foxfold and 15 others 11 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meflick Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) First, my condolences on the sudden loss of your beautiful wife. My prayers for you and your family as you grieve and process your loss. Second, you did excellent work in creating your patterns and cutting them to honor her not only at her memorial service, but to be treasured for years to come in remembering her and your life together. The fact that you were able to create and cut them so quickly even amidst your grief is a tribute to the love you shared.

woodduck Posted July 27, 2022 Report Share Posted July 27, 2022 So sorry for your loss mate. Connie looks like a lovely lady. Your cutting is a fitting tribute to her. Nickel Falls 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie E Posted July 27, 2022 Report Share Posted July 27, 2022 I'm so sorry to hear that Chuck. Connie's surely had a beautiful smile and you captured it well. I went to your profile page and we have a bit in common. My name is Charlie and a few have called me Chuck over the years. My wife's name is Connie, and I was born a few days after you on October 18, 1960. Funny that little things like that can make this kind of thing hit closer to home. Know that someone in Alabama's thinking of you and said a prayer for you. Nickel Falls 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
