Re: PESO - Branford Point, In Memoriam

I offer my belated sympathy.  I lost my mother in 2010. I miss her 
always! She was 96 and well right up to her stroke.


She was a good woman and Saints fan and I knew she had pull with the 
Lord.  In a moment of levity, I asked her to see if she couldn't help 
the Saints win a Superbowl before she passed on Feb 4.  On Feb 7 the 
Saints won Superbowl XLIV.


Her memorial service was three weeks later (she was cremated).  Often 
there aren't many attendees to the funeral of an old person.  The church 
was full.  All ages too.  She was a retired teacher and active in the 
church.  Several of our family members are musicians and vocalists and 
all performed.  It was a very entertaining service.

She would have loved it and maybe she did.

Seriously, you have my sincere condolences.

A lovely photo, Rick, and a fine homage to your mother. 

My mother died in January 2008. She is still with me, and will be forever. A 
wonderful spirit; a brave and delightful person: I hear her laugh still, as if 
she were sitting beside me and responding to some inner amusement. 

My condolences on your loss. May you pass through the grief quickly, and accept 
the joy of her being in your living memory forever.
