Here's to Mom

My condolences to you and your family

[Dr. Stogie Fresh]

Thanks so much for sharing about your recent loss. It should remind us all that life is fragile, and we should make use of our time on earth wisely.

I was in Los Angeles this past weekend for the memorial for my father-in-law. We chartered a boat to take his ashes out to sea and dropped them in the Pacific Ocean, per his request. There were many pleasant memories shared and it was a time for celebration.

My thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family.

Sorry for your loss.

My sympathys go with you. It sounds like your mom was a wonderful lady. Just remember if you ever get lonely and miss her, just look in the mirror because there is that little bit of her in you and its smiling back at you with warm and loving smile.

 50 years of marriage is an accomplishment that not many achieve. Hearing her son speak so compassionately about his mother reflects on what type of person she was and the son she raised. You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

My deepest sympathies for your loss.  Celebrate her life, and her GREAT accomplishments.  We can keep in our hearts, alive, the people we love and lose.

May she rest in peace knowing how loved she was by her family. Will get my Daddy, and my baby sister to meet her at the pearly gates.....she is heaven sent....for sure.

God bless you and your family during this time of grief.
