My Absence

I know my Faithful readers have probably wondered what happened. I have been on the watch with my mother as she faced her final transition. She did so Friday evening. It was a rough ride for her and I know she's much happier.
The business of death continues, though, and I doubt I'll be back home for at least another few weeks. The internet link here is sporadic - and very slow, so I can't make any promises of posting.
In the meantime, may everyone have a wonderful Christmas!

All my condolences, my friend.
I lost my four grandparents, my father, my mother, my sister, so I know what it is. The best which could have happened to my mother would have been to die two years earlier, what is not really (and maybe not aT all) a consolation.
I wish you a Christmas and an end of year as good as possible in these sad circumstances.

Hugs, love and bisous to our dear Jean and yourself.

So sorry for your loss. I lost my mom in June. Grieve well even in the midst of the final preparations. I hoping she knew Jesus and is in a better place. My wife lost her mom on Christmas Eve. It makes for a bitter sweet holiday.

I have been concerned about your absence. So sorry to learn of your mother's passing. It is a very difficult time in your life. I found that gradually the pain of my mother passing was eventually replaced with fond memories of Holidays, birthdays, family reunions, vacations and routine stuff we did every day. I wish you well.

Sincerely,
GJ
