RIP Martina Anna

[Tarlam!]

You always complained that I hung around this place. I told you that I had too much personal interface at work and just needed to shut down here.

Now, you're dead. You had a terrible accident. You were sick. You didn't take your medicine, and now...

Look, Martina, I was a lousy husband. I take full blame. I can't begin to tell you how sorry I am. I let you down.

I have taken your body back to Vienna and you will be buried in Aspern with your mother and father. Walter, Leopold and AnneMarie agreed. I have organized your favourite songs to be sung live.

I made sure your coffin is good, but not expensive, just like we agreed, when we were happier.

I will take care of our son and daughter.

I am so sorry I was such a jerk. I could have saved you. I didn't.

I hope you have now, finally, found peace where you are. I hope you can forgive me. I hope our children will one day forgive me.

Martina, goodbye.


MAD - Please see that she gets this.

Dear Rats, sorry, but I needed to share it with you.

So sorry for your loss.

Your wife is dead? Really? That's tragic...

[Tarlam!]

Your wife is dead? Really? That's tragic...

Yes. She was hit by a train. At first, we thought it was suicide, but we've since pieced together the puzzle and realized it was a horrible accident.

It's my fault. I should have been more aware that her condition went south. I should have saved her. I was too late.

I'm truly sorry brother. Stay strong. I realize that there are several miles between us but, let me know if there's anything I can do.

I'm truly sorry brother. Stay strong. I realize that there are several miles between us but, let me know if there's anything I can do.

Listen to the songs and maybe light a candle and say a prayer, Jeff.

She hated this place, cause I was always here. But if a few Rats would honour her in her death, I'm sure she would understand my passion for the place.

[BallHawk]

So sorry for your loss, Tar. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

This is terrible man. Is it time to move to Wisconsin?

[MadtownPacker]

So sorry to hear this Aussie. My sincerest condolences for this terrible loss. My thoughts are with you and your children.

Sorry to hear it tarlam. But remember, you most honor those that you loved by moving forward...never forgetting, but not dwelling to the point you ruin your life too.

Tarlam-

Those are beautiful songs - I hadn't heard of the first but my wife thought it was touching.

It's best not to place blame in situations like this - I've lost 2 best friends in the past 2 years and while it's never easy and people will try to say all the right things you just have to deal with it the best you can. Be strong for your children, share and cherish the memories and all things are possible.

Very sorry for your loss

I'm very sorry for your loss. Make sure that you stay strong for your kids during this. They'll need your support Tar!!

[retailguy]

Will add you and your kids to my prayer list. Well, actually your kids, you've never left it... My thoughts are with you during this time. My sincere condolences Tar!
