Rest in Peace Mom

This post is so hard to write.  I'll do a better job at a later date.  

Heaven gain a new soul last Sunday, April 26th.  My mom passed away late Sunday afternoon.  She was 91 years old.

I love and miss her tremendously but right now it's just hard to talk about.

   This is my favorite picture of the two of use together.  It was taken several years ago but she was actually smiling.  Mom hated having her picture taken so it was hard sometimes to get a good one of her smiling.

The flowers from the grave. The lilacs were from her own tree as this was one of her favorite flowering trees.




 May Day flowers. The first year I haven't given them to her in person since I was in the first grade. 

 We didn't have a service because of the restrictions on funerals right now.  At a later day we are having a Celebration of Life service when more people can attend. 

Again at a later date I'll do a better job with a memorial tribute to her.  

You are loved and missed mom.

    OH, I am so very sorry! How hard, and during this isolation as well. I know no words will make you feel better right now. Thank you for letting us know. Not being able to have a funeral or closure makes it even worse, I know hugs would have helped. Sending you a big hug.

    Ida - I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. My Mother is also 91, and has been having some issues lately. The prospect of not being able to hug her goodbye, or to have a funeral, has sent me into tears on more than one occasion, so I have some sense of your loss. So, so sorry.

    Dear Ida:

    I am sorry that I am late in conveying my condolences for you loss. I won't say much else on the subject as there is few words that are comforting when you experience the loss of a loved one.

    I hope that you are doing well and navigating this new normal of Covid we are all experiencing.
    It has been a while since I have visited. I have to say its good to see you are still blogging, so many have stopped or moved on to other platforms .

    Take care of yourself, stay safe and well.

    Ida, I'm so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. What a beautiful picture of the two of you together. I just loved your story that you gave her May flowers every year since first grade, wow! That is just so very special... I can't imagine having to go through her home and make such tough decisions. This has been a rough time for you, but I'm glad to see you back blogging again. Much love to you dear friend!
