The Cheap Way
Many families have turned to cremation as a final and cheap way to dispose of a love one's body. Last rites have become individual family & friends memorials at home or you local funeral home. Those who can't afford the funeral home expenses, opt for a personal memorial between family and friends at a convenient location, with personal burial at the family cemetery or a local place that was special to the person being buried. It's sad that this has come down to this, but it's become too expensive to die, these days.

Drawer Slides
There comes a time when parts wear out and new one's have to be purchased. The first thing I notice when opening a drawer is how smooth it moves. If it's not in the grooves right then it will hang and give you problems. I'm sure that's when you will need to invest in better undermount drawer slides to replace the used one's. To shop for the type and sign you need I suggest clicking on the link in this post and search through the wide array of slides, like the one's shown above.

Dear Lady...........
Helen Parrish.............
I remember the first time I ever met you. It was a family holiday and you were at your daughter's for the festivities. My sister took me over with her so she could give you your gifts from her and your son. Meeting the other side of the family for the first time, was a good venture.
I remember your bubbly persona, and how you were enjoying the family and the moments you all had going on. You talked to me as if I had been there many years. As the last few years have gone by, I've seen you through visits to the nursing home where my parents and you were staying.
I can say truthfully that you always had that smile and it gave a sense of sweetness to you and anyone around you. No longer than I was able to know you, I found you to be as full of life as your body would allow. You had that sweet spirit that not many people are endowed with.
I know that you are with your family and friends up there above us. I'm sure that Don and Carolyn will miss you terribly. It's going to be a great loss for them to handle. Yet, they have the peace that you no longer are suffering and are finally at rest.
God bless you sweet lady, and may you rest in peace.
Sincerely,
Nita

Dear Lady
I saw on a social media where the local FD posted of your death this morning. It seems that you passed away last night. Though we hadn't been in much contact recently, you were still a part of our neighborhood family. I know your husband will be lost without you, since you two have been together since you high school days and marriage. I'm not sure if you were younger than my sister, but I know you were younger than me because I'm about 4 years older than your husband. I don't know what you may have been in ill health from? I always saw you dashing around town, doing you duty as the Mayor's wife and carrying on your church activities. I have known you, and your family for years. I've know your husband's family for years and grew up with the boys during our school years. It's sad to see you leave so soon, and I can only hope that the family, friend's and coworkers will aide in seeing your husband through this difficult time.
RIP Ouida Bailey.

Real Thing......
Growing up as a child was different from many. A grandmother who went to church devoutly also lived the life as best she could. Being human has always been a problem for anyone who tries to live the Christian way and beliefs. She no doubt found times that she could not understand. I often saw her on her knees praying for guidance as she went about her daily life. Most of all I remember her singing. Whether it be at church or home, she could always break out in a song of praise to her Lord. Following in her footsteps became a way of life. I too found that feeling of uplifting every time I sang for the Lord. Starting at the age of 4, I began a life filled with the gift of music. Songs became a way of feeling that I was giving of myself to the local world around me. The fact that most of my music was religious was no problem to me. It was my heritage, where I came from. That was good enough for me.
Her singing was always comforting in a secure way, and gave me peace that she had the hand of God leading and guiding her every move. One thing I always knew was that she would go to him in all things, no matter what.......! That was the REAL THING!

Different Ways
It's been the one thing that has always affected our cultures. Birth & death has a way of changing lives in one way or another. You find that people of different cultures celebrate or grieve in different manners.
Often a person's emotional stability can affect how they handle these dire moments in their lives. While birth is something to celebrate, death is something to grieve. It's not so easy to accept the limitations that these certain moments place upon us.
Depending on the circumstances of a birth, it can be joyous or problematic. A young mother can have many problems adapting to the birth of an unexpected child. She is overcome with guilt for not wanting this child to be born. Her financial situation in life may contribute to this feeling. Whether or not she decides to keep the child or place it up for adoption, she will have many negative emotional times during her life.
A death is never easy to accept or deal with. Once again remember it is the emotional stability of the people going through the ordeal of loosing a loved one. One can only hope that these situations are made more peaceful by the strength of love and prayer.
