Mom!

My deepest sympthy to you and your family. Mom's are special.

My dad died 21 years ago today, less than a month before his first grandchild was born. At the time it was pretty sad. But it does mean my little baby girl has a big birthday comig up soon!

When my Mom died in 2004 it hit me harder for some reason. I guess just because we feel like we should be there to protect them. But i reality they did so much more than we'll ever know to keep us safe.

MB, I think I felt guilty cause I could'nt do anything ta stop what happened. She was 76 yrs old and had been in poor health for many years. After her companion passed a month ago she said she was ready to go too. We couldnt change her mind, even with 3 sons ,10 grand kids and 6 great grand kids she said she had nothing ta live for. I guess thats how you feel when you get that old and in that shape. I really miss her!!! She was a great mother!!
