Lost my mom today. Oct 30

Update. The funeral home in Delaware is expected to get her from the funeral home in Baltimore County MD Sunday to take her to Delaware until our celebration of her life and burial on Thursday. Sure hope I don't stress out too much before then. I am having faith I will make it through.

My condolences.

Remember: as long as someone remembers her, something of Your mom will still be there.

BTW: Nov 1st we had to bury my mom. So i can feel with You.

She had paased away on Oct 20th, two days after her 97th birthday. 20 years after the fist stroke took her left side. She could go in peace. I have been accompanying her through her last two nights and hope i could have given her the support she needed.

Still processing the whole picture of the phone call I received moments after arriving in the parking lot of the nursing home my mom spent the last 15 months in. My sister had a gut sense of something being "off" with Mom starting Friday afternoon. I arrived at about 2:25 and tried to chill for a few minutes of a power nap in the front seat of my truck, when the phone rang from the man in charge to ask where I was. When I told him I was in their parking lot, he said he would meet me in the lobby.

At this point, I knew.

I knew this was going to be a surprise of the bad news. He told me that Mom passed at around 2:15 pm.

Around 3:45 my sister arrived and then began our 5 hour send off to our sweet mommy. I am now doing my best to battle back any stupid tears. I have to be strong in order to now process all the details of funerals, travel, family time and all the legal etc ramifications.

I sure am proud of my brave and most loving mom any kids could have ever had.

Love you Ma.

So sorry about your Mom's passing, Chili... I just learned the sad news and words fail me... I've been there too and hope that you can find comfort in the knowledge that she lived a full and rewarding life, of which you were a part of. We're with you, Brother Chili...

Bea,. I love how you were the loving daughter to your mom and the friend you have been to me. Thank you so much for your comforting words. Today, I lay mom to rest beside our stepdad. I will be giving a Eulogy for her during her ceremony. Praying for more of mom's strength to deliver it tear free and with clear thoughts. Hugs and prayers to you as you remember your dear mother fondly.

Well, I can't believe 29 hours has passed since Mom's ceremony. I didn't lose it during my Eulogy for her, and almost every scenario went as expected. The processing of the payment was a bit touch n go, but things went through, and my sister finally showed up, just in time before things were slated to begin. Our dear mom is now in the ground and in Heaven. Thank you for everything, Ma!!!
