Virginia Read Barnett
September 27, 1953 - May 12, 2010

Ginny was my wife, my best friend, and my true love.

An announcement will be made concerning funeral arrangements in the next day or so.

Your long journey is finally over, Ginny. When my turn comes, my spirit will not rest until I find you in the afterlife, and I will love you and treasure you forever.

[KonaKane]

May the memories left be good ones. It seems they are...

[derby378]

34. Thank you...

Her death actually came as a surprise. Ginny had been dealing with health problems, but neither of us had any idea her situation was so critical.

She essentially died in her sleep. I'm still waiting for the final word from the coroner, but I don't think she suffered.

Again, thank you. :hug:

[w8liftinglady]

39. I'm so sorry-Is there any cause Ginny was passionate about?I'd like to make

a donation in her name...so her goodness lives on.

[derby378]

52. You are very kind to offer this

She was passionate about the ASPCA, Americans United for Separation of Church and State, ACLU, Freedom From Religion Foundation, NARAL, Sea Shepherd, National Center for Science Education, Sierra Club, and the Humane Society. A donation to any of those in her honor is something I am sure Ginny would truly appreciate.

Thank you. :hug:

[derby378]

55. Thank you, everyone, for your outpouring of love and sympathy

I have to leave for now, but will try to share details about the funeral when circumstances are a little better.

Thank you all. :grouphug:

DU just lost one of the good ones.

Sending you my best wishes during the trying days ahead.

[renate]

251. just those two posts say so much about her

What a smart, good, self-aware, compassionate, thinking person.

How awful that she could be here, sharing such lovely thoughts with us, just a few days ago, and suddenly she's gone. I can't begin to imagine the shock, let alone the grief, that you are feeling. I am so sorry.

[fascisthunter]

64. I am so sorry for your loss

I lost my father not too long ago, and in fact lost his parents, my grandparents all within 5 years. I always felt sorry for people's losses, but not like this. Once you lose somebody very close to your heart your brain becomes almost programed to feel your own loss all over again.

Anyways, I'm babbling. Peace be with you...

[hobbit709]

65. Oh damn. I'm so sorry

Hugs from me.

sufficient to ease your pain or comfort you in your loss. I hope the knowledge that you are not alone and that many wish you strength and courage and peace will help you.

[TuxedoKat]

75. I'm so sorry for your loss

She was way too young indeed. Reading that last post of hers shows what an intelligent, perceptive soul she was to have questioned what she was taught and rebelled against it. God bless you all.

[man4allcats]

137. Very sorry to learn of this, derby378

My thoughts are with you. I have found the following Irish poem to offer some consolation at such times:

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there... I do not sleep.
I am the thousand winds that blow...
I am the diamond glints on snow...
I am the sunlight on ripened grain...
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you waken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of gentle birds in circling flight...
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry—
I am not there... I did not die...



Peace be with you, my friend.

[Oilwellian]

"When my turn comes, my spirit will not rest until I find you in the afterlife, and I will love you and treasure you forever."

You were/are so incredibly lucky to find, marry and spend your life and eternity with your soul mate.

I believe that you will not have to look for her;but that she will be waiting for you and embrace you with her love when it is your time to cross over, and your souls will be united even as they still are right now. And please please forgive me if those words sounded "preachy" or something in a way that you or Ginny do not or did not believe. They are meant only as an expression of my personal belief, which I never ever would attempt to impose on another, and as an expression of love and profound sympathy for you. Bless you, and Ginny's soul, abq e streeter.....(Ron)

[Unrepentant Fenian]

157. I'm so sorry

[renko]

158. So terribly sorry

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good.


Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone
W. H. Auden

207. My deepest condolences for your loss.

May time dull the edges of heartache and loss, and may memory provide the comfort of better times forever remembered and treasured.

I will hug my wife and family a little tighter tonight in memory of your departed and I hope everyone else brings a little more love into the world tonight as well in memorandum.

208. My heart goes out for you. It is a long road ahead.

I have been where you are, and find your quote most appropriate.

"my spirit will not rest until I find you in the afterlife, and I will love you and treasure you forever".


Peace

You and your wife sent a handcuff pin to a friend of mine after she was arrested 5 or 6 years ago at the White House.

236. So Sorry Derby

Way too young, only a few months older than me and younger than my SO who is also very ill. I'm not the praying type either but my thoughts are with you. I don't know the situation but I do know this. We don't have the "Greatest Health Care System in the World". I don't want to politicize your loss but I know that one day soon, I will be in your shoes. I only hope I can face it without bitterness toward a society that accepts and even props up a broken system.

PEACE:hug:

[Octafish]

I don't know if you remember (but I surely do), but you went out of your way to be kind to me on a thread a couple of months ago.

Please know that I am thinking of you. Let me know if I can be of any help at all.

:hug:

[riverbendviewgal]

269. My deepest sympathy

The days and nights will be long for awhile. You will expect to hear her voice or see her coming through the door.
You'll wake up and "think where is she?"
and then remember.

In time the hurting will lessen and then with the help of friends and family you will be remembering the good things and laughing and even talking to her yourself when you are alone.

I know because I lost my son in 1999 and his dad, my soul mate in 2001.
You will get through this and from this list there will be many to help you.

You had a wonderful love with your love and she will help you through this.
Watch for the signs. They will come.

[noiretextatique]

270. my deepest sympathies to you and your family

derby :hug:

saw you last night, loved one
in those misty clouds
moving slowly across the moon
with such ease and power
and i knew it was you
your precious soul in ascension
to the infinite dawn

i watched as you moved across the sky
with sweet freedom and grace
and the power of your love
shattered space and time
and showered me
deep within in me
with your everlasting light of life
so you live in me

i bless as i accept
the light of your soul
in gratitude
and thank you for being a well-loved woman
how lucky, the angels,
to receive your bright spirit
now pure radiant love
as you are always to me
how blessed i am to have
in memories, and in spirit and in life
so i rest in peace
as you rest in freedom
in the light of life

you had to go
i miss you
so thank you for your life
and your sweet visit
before the divine ascent
we never say goodbye
just goodnight, dear one
and see you one morning
in the light

[emilyg]

272. May she rest in peace and you get peace. So sorry.

[polly7]

273. I am so very sorry.

[aquart]

274. Oh, that's too soon.

But you sound as if you have a hundred years of loving, happy memories. That's a precious, beautiful way to live a life.

Grief is the last privilege of love. Do whatever you need to feel better no matter how silly. Don't make any major decision (and don't sign anything!) for a year.

Understand, right now you are insane. Let the people who need to help help, as a kindness to them, if you can.

There is no way through this but through it, and she will always be cheering you on.
