33. Sounds like your Mom passed
Mon Jul 28, 2014, 08:33 PM
Jul 2014

ten years to the day after mine. The pictures show me a lady who, like my Mom, lived a full life, the kind of life most of this world only dreams about.

I remember looking at my two brothers after her memorial service, and since my dad had passed 14 years before, saying "we all got a little older today." That's been both a difficult and a good thing. I hope your fond memories of her last you a lifetime.

Your photos of your Mom always make me feel as if she is someone I need to meet. Solly Mack Jul 2014 #1
