Wanda,
I am so sorry to hear that your Mother passed away. I know every emotion you are feeling. I am praying for comfort and peace beyond all understanding for you and your brother and family. I’m sure you are comforted by the fact that she is having a wonderful reunion in Heaven. God Bless you and yours.
Dear Wanda, Larry & Pat, I know this has been a very hard time for each of you in your own ways; and my heart goes out to you. I feel I can truly say, I know how you feel. Truth is I don’t know what to say, nothing seems to be enough to ease the ache and loss in your hearts. I do know that time helps and that everything you feel you need to feel, every tear needs to be shed and every memory gone over time and time again….and eventually peace will come and replace some of the void in your heart. I say some because I’m not sure you ever stop missing or yearning for one more conversation with mom. I remember mother saying ( in her 70’s) that she still missed her mom.
We are and always will be our mother’s children ; and children need their moms…….
God bless and watch over you,
Linda
