My mother has passed away at the age of 84 after a protracted period of failing health. I'll be traveling to New York today to attend the services and help my brothers wrap up affairs. I'll not have much time to look at things for a bit. I visited her at the beginning of December so we could share some time together while she was still able and smiling. She was alert and able to talk until just a couple of days ago, I was able to talk to her on the phone Wednesday and say a last good-bye. Her consciousness faded on Thursday. Yesterday one of my brothers was in attendance at her side when she went softly to sleep and gently stopped breathing for the last time. She was a remarkable person ... even beyond being my mother and putting up with me... with tremendous strength of will and a huge heart. She suffered many adversities in her life with guts and good humor, always with the best intent for those around her and never a thought for herself. We will all miss her and hold her memory dearly. Godfrey ================ Sorry to hear of your loss, Godfrey. Losing a parent is hard no matter how old they are and no matter how old you are. I hope your trip to NY helps with closure or helps bring closure.
