I've been thinking

Whenever I say that people usually run for cover.  You never know what might pop up in my mind.  LOL

But this time I have a good idea.  It's a little late for part of the idea, but you can make it work somehow some way I am sure.

After reading the comments left at my last post (about Pamela's last Thanksgiving) I got hit with an idea.

Most of us know someone that has passed within the past year.  This may be their first major holiday without their loved one.  And they may think that no one remembers or realizes how much it hurts not to have that loved one with them for this holiday.

I KNOW that Hallmark (and probably American Greetings, and tons of other card makers) make cards for this occasion.  They are cards that are very touching that mention the absence of a loved one.  Here is a sample of one that I found:

Message Of Comfort ecard from Hallmark Ecards

Just go to the sites that you usually use for e-cards and I know you will find one.  Then send it to the person you know is missing a loved one.  If I was on my toes and mentioned this days ago you could have went to the store and bought a card and mailed it.  Heck you still can.  It will just be a tad late.

Or you can call the person, drop by their house to let them know you remember and are thinking about them.

Now that you have done this for Thanksgiving, you can remember and do it again at Christmas.  And on Mother's Day/Father's day, or whenever you know someone is having a bad time because their loved one has passed.

I am sure that you will make someone's day.  If you hear back from someone let us know.   You don't have to say who, but that the idea did work.
