    My mother once told me...

    "Don't mourn my passing. Celebrate my life. It has been one of miracles and wonders. I've known the love of a good man who I've spent my life with. I've looked into the eyes of my children and been warmed by their wonder and curiosity. I've seen my children grow up good and strong. I've seen my grandchildren take their first steps. I've seen the world change. Things commonplace today were unheard of when I was a child.

    It will be my time to move on. To join my parents. To make a place for you to join me when the time comes.

    Do not mourn my passing. Celebrate my life."

    Even as a grey-haired old man, my mother is still the wisest person I've ever known.

    Then again, that's what a Mother is all about, isn't it?

    Ilost my mom on November 9,2002 and miss her terribly but she isn't suffering anymore. I read this at the end of her eulogy:

    Who ran to help me when I fell,
    And would some pretty story tell,
    Or kiss the place to make it well?
    My mother

    Love her always.....

    Saddened

    I am saddedned to read of your sorrow. Help your father now. His sense of loss will be greater still as everything he did while your mom needed him has now stopped. His loss of being helpful, and the loss of his spouse will be very hard. I've experienced this fourteen years ago when I was 32. It was the toughest thing I've ever been through. Be there for your father and get closer to him. Your dad will be grateful even when he says he's just fine. Again, I am so sorry.
