13 years ago today my Mom passed on...There are very few days that I do not think about her, and how she influenced me.

When I think about all that has happened since her passing it seems like alot..I have a son she never met...have moved a number of times, changed jobs...a number of life changing things.

When I think about the years that have passed, it seems like yesterday...its engraved deep into my memory.

Today I don't grieve any longer...I miss her a lot but now just get a smile on my face when I think of her...and know that she would be happy that I have not forgot about her.

Its funny how time flies!


Here is the poem that we selected for her service

After Glow

I'd like the memory of me
to be a happy one.
I'd like to leave an after glow
of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
of happy times and laughing
times and bright
and sunny days.

I'd like the tears of those who
grieve, to dry before the sun
of happy memories that I leave
when life is done


RIP Mom!

I lost both of my parents in 1992, 2 and a half months apart. My son was born 2/7/92, Dad died 2/22/92 and Mom 5/1/92. I miss them everyday like you miss your Mom. I feel bad that my Dad never held his grandson and they missed him growing up. Now my daughter has blessed us with a grandson and I am glad,so far, that I am healthy and young enough to do the special things grandpa's do!

Beautiful poem, Dave, those memories you have are a blessing.

Thanks what a tough year that had to be for you and the family.

My dad passed on in 1975 he was only 46 at the time...I was 19...I've lived more years with out him that I did with...That in part is why I try and stay in good health so that I can see my son grow up and he will have me around
 
It was tough, but I have my wife of 27 years and my 2 great kids, oh, and I can't forget my 7 month old grandson!

It is so great seeing all the changes the kids have made through out the years, they do grow up fast, my son goes for his license on the 8th!
 
My father past away when I was 5 that was 22 years ago. I was only 5 but I remember him talkin to me in Italian, playin baseball with me, takin me fishing. There is not a day since then I have not thought of him. My Grandmother that I was very very close to past away Oct 06. She was in NC I have not seen her in a year, my fiance had our sone in July 06, we were lookin at movin to TN near my fiances family and only 5 hours from my family (they moved to NC in 03). My last conversation with my grandmother was how bad she wants to hold my son, then asked if we were goin to move to TN and how I need to visit. I told her I doubt we are movin, conversation was on tues night, thurs night we decided we are goin to TN in a month. My grandmother past away that friday. I miss her dearly, I wish she could have just held my son
