I'm very sorry to hear about your mom. It sounds like she had a good long life, living to be 90 years old. But that doesn't make losing her any easier. May God give you and your family comfort and strength to make it through this difficult time.

You got that right on the longevity. I know many who lost parents too early. I am fortunate for the 90 years but that was just a lot of extra years of love that I have for both of them. Dads really sad right now. He wants to go with her. Going to be a tough tough day tomorrow.

Moms are truly the persons that make our worlds go round. My daughter is an OB/GYN. Guess who she calls when she gets sick. Moms are the heart and soul of most every family. I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom.

Thank you for the kind words.
Today was not as bad I thought could be. Saw lots of relatives that haven't seen in years. My cousin fly's B-1 Bombers! Who would have thought?

Even in his wheel chair, Dad stayed strong. Priest had some nice words and even the Mayor came to see her. Tomorrow will be the end of this chapter of my life with her.

Certainly a BC I will never forget but never saw. A sudden and unexpected tragedy yesterday afternoon.

My brother is gone. 59 years old, father, husband, son, brother, friend, and just a GREAT guy. Way too young. RIP....see you on the other side brother.
