Rest in Peace: Sue Clarke

My estranged ex-wife.

We hadn't been in contact for well over 10 years but there was a time, long ago, when she was the most important thing in my life.

*sigh*

Not sure what the appropriate emotion or response is, but my best wishes to you.

I managed to connect with the wrong woman for some 13 years back when. DOn't know what I'd think if I learned of her demise. Probably just: oh well.

Sorry. And, sorry. :(

But life, and love, go on. :)

I guess one's feelings about such a situation might be, well, complex. But my condolences... :cry:

It wasn't a bad or bitter break up. I had just moved on. It wasn't her choice.

What was the cause of death? {If this question is inappropriate, decline to answer.}

I'm not completely clear on it.

I learned she recently had a lung transplant for unknown reasons and that it went okay. Then something else happened later. I'm still trying to piece it together.

I guess she had been in bad health for quite a while and it came as no shock to those around her.

I'm getting all my information second and third hand though.

Damn, I didn't even know they did lung transplants...

Sorry to hear about that Lance, I don't know how that feels, but I imagine it would be something similar to a lost friend dying, which is something I can relate too. Quite a bitter feeling.
