Nothing to say for a while…….

Rest in peace, and may God grant you life eternally.

 

MY MOTHER

No Love like a Mother’s Love

There is no love, like a mother’s love,
no stronger bond on earth…
like the precious bond that comes from God,
to a mother, when she gives birth.

A mother’s love is forever strong,
never changing for all time…
and when her children need her most,
a mother’s love will shine.

God bless these special mothers,
God bless them every one…
for all the tears and heartache,
and for the special work they’ve done.

When her days on earth are over,
a mother’s love lives on…
through many generations,
with God’s blessings on each one.

Be thankful for our mothers,
for they love with a higher love…
from the power God has given,
and the strength from up above.

    Deepest sympathies and prayers for you and your family. Losing a parent is tough (my Dad passed in ’01). Let me know if there is anything I can do for you…

    Fjp,

    My deepest condolences on your loss. My own mother passed over some years ago, and it’s always a tough thing. Anything you need, just holler.

    Respects,

  29. Skip,

    So sorry to hear of your loss. Please know that you’ll be in my thoughts and prayers.

  30. I am so sorry Skippy. Please think about all the people that still love you while you bury her…
    Funny how my mother still talks to me 10 years on…

  35. So sorry for your loss! I pray that you and your family will find the peace and the strength in your hearts to endure this most difficult time! “Now, the God of Peace be with you all, Amen” Romans 15:33

  39. Skippy:

    My deepest condolences on your loss. Be thankful for the long time she spent on this earth and the many wonderful things she experienced. I feel that way about my mom who passed after almost 93 wonderful years.

  40. Skippy,

    My most sincere condolences. Just remember, she’s never that far away, if she’s still in your heart.

    That tie to our moms is pretty strong. I know when mine first passed away, I found myself for months afterwards thinking “well, I’ll just call Mom and see what she thinks”. After some time, I realized that while I couldn’t call her, she was, and always will be, part of me. The absence will pass, Skippy, and you will come to realize the subtile, but important ways, that Moms are always part of their son’s lives.

  49. My most earnest and sincere condolences to you, Sir.

    When one’s Mom goes, there’s not much the humans can do to console one.

    May our prayers console you, with God’s help.
