So sorry to hear of your loss. So glad to hear of her disposition. Obviously rubbed off on you. Thanks for sharing. May the Lord sustain you and your family through this time.
My mom passed this morning. She was on hospice care since a recent fall so it was expected. 92 years old and always found a reason to be happy. View attachment 249983
Only in silence, the word
Only in darkness, light
Only in dying, life.
Bright the hawks flight on an empty sky.
This poem by Ursula K LeGuin gave me comfort when my dad died when I was 18. My mom is going on 94 and is unlikely to see another Christmas so I know how it feels. My hope is that you will be able to celebrate a life lived.
My sympathies for your loss Joe. Our mothers can never be replaced, but . . . so many memories too cherish. Hopefully the celebration of her life well lived will extend endlessly beyond the finality of settling her affairs; the memories of what she's taught you always there to continue their guidance.
I looked through this thread and couldn't find your mother's name. Please share it so we can remember her also.
