Some may recall that my Mom had a fall recently. The Doctor did a partial hip replacement, and thar went well. Two days later though, she had a heart attack, and could come back from that. She was 98, and all was just too much for her. We transferred her from the hospital to her home, and entered a home hospice program. Last night, she passed, and went home to the Lord. I am certain Pop was waiting for her as well. She was a fine Southern Christian lady. She was a wonderful Mother to the 5 of us, and such a great Grandma to many grand kids, and 11 great grandkids. Well educated, a talented pianist, tennis player, cook and loved sports. She will be missed.
Sam......

America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

may she RIP and you be comforted by the fact that she lived so long in good health compared to many her age.

You did all you could. You did the best you could. You are a fine son and show that parents did a superior job in raising you. A fine reflection of your mother and father.
Although it is a loss, it is also peace for your mother and a reunion for your father and more.
Please accept our prayers, thoughts and condolences.

Some may recall that my Mom had a fall recently. The Doctor did a partial hip replacement, and thar went well. Two days later though, she had a heart attack, and could come back from that. She was 98, and all was just too much for her. We transferred her from the hospital to her home, and entered a home hospice program. Last night, she passed, and went home to the Lord. I am certain Pop was waiting for her as well. She was a fine Southern Christian lady. She was a wonderful Mother to the 5 of us, and such a great Grandma to many grand kids, and 11 great grandkids. Well educated, a talented pianist, tennis player, cook and loved sports. She will be missed. So sorry to hear of it my friend. Y'all will be in my prayers.

Sorry to hear of this, Sam. My sincerest condolences to you, your family, and her freinds.
Rest in the knowledge that she lived a wonderful and fulfilling life. At 98 and getting around on your own, she wasn't cheated out of love and laughter or life.
Sorry again my friend.

Back home now. Boy that's a long drive from Birmingham.
Thanks so much for the kind words, and the support. Dad passed in 1991, so I know they are holding hands again right now.
Yeah, life goes on, but it certainly is not the same.

Sam,
You've got a far bigger "family" than you ever realized before. No, it ain't the same and it can't ever replace what's gone; but maybe it might help a touch.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

Wow 98!! Good thoughts and prayer for her!! That is some journey and deserves a celebration of life that I'm sure you and your family are having. Based on your insight she will have no problem finding her way.
Mothers and daughters are special. Very special. I truly hope I'm celebrating my Mother and sisters 98th.
Godspeed healing Sam!
