It has been said that one cannot stop the hands of time . We all age , grow older and hopefully wiser . At the wake on Sunday beside a portrait and verse of N@'s friend's father lay two silver and gold watches . The family related the story of how on Wednesday of last week his wife noted that her watch had stopped at 3:09 pm and made a mental note to herself to see a jeweler for repair . Later on Friday , after the shock and disbelief of the tragic , accidental death of her husband
and best friend two days before , the funeral home released his personal effects into her care . Her husband's watch had stopped at exactly 3:09 pm Wednesday . A coincidence ? A miracle?
Each day there are signs all around us if only we care to truly see .
You decide .

Spooky. Like something out of The Twilight Zone.
I hope Carol -- who I know, and is a wonderful person herself -- takes it as a comfort, that she and Lorne (who I didn't know) were truly in sync.
Wow...whatever you call it, there is no denying that is a big coincidence.
My sympathies.
Grief is such a personal thing - I just don't feel I have any right to comment, not knowing your friends...but I hope you're going to be okay, and that your friends find peace wherever they may in whatever might bring them comfort, and that good memories and better times will soon win out over the grief.
WOW that is kindy eerie and awesome at the same time. Was it a sign? Is there really someone up above looking down on us and giving us signs or do they just make us believe there is something out there so that we can accept death easier?
