A love heart made out of sheep: Australian farmer pays tribute to his aunt - Irish Times

"Unfortunately, she didn’t make it,” Mr Jackson said. “At those times of grief, you feel really helpless, you don’t know what to do, what to say.

"Especially in these Covid times, no one can prepare for that border closure grief, not being able to say cheerio or be there when she passes. It’s pretty difficult."

Mr Jackson said the idea for the heart came to him while he was out feeding his sheep "supplementary tucker" as they are "quite pregnant and need a bit of extra TLC".

Actually making the heart took "three or four" attempts, Mr Jackson said, with his initial efforts turning out less than desirable.

"The first time I tried it looked like the sh*t emoji, I tell you, and whilst my Aunty Deb had a good sense of humour, that wasn’t exactly what I was going for," he said.

This has left me in a teary and bleary eyed mess, but in a good way.

I never promised my late wife a medal, never had much of a chance to promise her anything other than I'd make sure our boy was happy and that we'd never forget her 😉 I'd like to hope that thanks to my friends, family and a very understanding woman who picked up our pieces that we've done an ok job.

The animation sync here is beautiful, heartwarming and heartbreaking all at once.

There was a thread recently, I think on 'you feel you loose' with stories from s website, all stories ended with something like 'makes you wonder/think. Does anyone know where that thread is?

The graves of a Catholic woman and her Protestant husband, who were not allowed to be buried together. On the Protestant part of this cemetery J.W.C van Gorcum, colonel of the Dutch Cavalry and militia commissioner in Limburg is buried. His wife, lady J.C.P.H van Aefferden is buried in the Catholic part. They were married in 1842, he was a protestant and didn’t belong to the nobility.

This caused quite a commotion in Roermond. After being married for 38 years the colonel died in 1880 and was buried on the protestant part of the cemetery against the wall. His wife died in 1888 and had decided not to be buried in the family tomb but on the other side of the wall, the closest she could get to her husband. Two clasped hands connect the graves across the wall
