| She passed away May 25th. I have been preoccupied with trying to take care of her for the last two years, more so the last 6 months. I have not been here much during this time, though I don't post much anyway. She is in a better place. She would have been 91 July 3. Thank You... |

G-D bless her and you. You're a good son and she did a wonderful job raising you.

I am glad your mother is at peace. I lost my mother about 5 years ago at age 80. She taught me a lot in life, how to live, and of course actually gave me life.
I can remember her dancing with me as a kid around the kitchen table singing "Your Cheating Heart" by Hank Williams. She really enjoyed being a mother and was good at it.
Condolences. |

Sorry to hear about your Mom but glad she's now at peace, looking down and thinking what a great son she had.
My Mom is 88 - right now she's in pretty good health (but has to use a walker to ambulate) and still mentally sharp --- but know that all can change, unfortunately, in an instant.

Sir, you were really blessed to have had her for 90 yrs. I am glad you were able to spend her last days with her. May God be with you, she is with him already.
