My mother passed away the 1st of August. The house sure seems empty without her but I know she is in a far better place and will never be sick or hurt again. Love you mom, RIP.
The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable. ~ H. L. Mencken
Sorry for your loss. Godspeed to her reward in heaven.

I'm sorry for your troubles and loss. May she rest in peace. There seems to be some grace for those not here to see the destruction of their country. God bless you James.

My poor mother is dead for many years now. She would not take care of herself and watch her blood pressure. It got her kidneys. She died from complications from kidney disease. ;-/

So sorry to learn of your loss, James. My mother passed in August of 2014.

I have a stone plaque for my mother on my desk that reads:
It broke my heart to lose you, but you didn't go alone, part of me went with you, the day God called you home.
Godspeed, James.

My condolences, James. Take comfort knowing that she is safe in the arms of Jesus, where God shall wipe away all tears from her eyes, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, nor pain.
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. - John 11:25-26
Yes, for that I am very thankful. Knowing that she will never again have any sickness or pain and knowing that when my time is up I will see her again and never have to say goodbye means the world to me.

Thank you my friend. Mom was seeing the destruction going on all around us and she was not happy about it. But she understood that it was signs of the times and she was ready to go to her eternal home.

I am sorry for your loss. I guess it is harder when you know they are not trying to live.

Thank you randge. I appreciate that very much and know how it feels to have to give up both parents. My dad died in 2002, just a few days after my 50th birthday. I thought I was prepared because he had been sick for a long time but even if you can accept it intellectually, emotionally is a different story. But I am grateful that God gave me 50 years with my dad and almost 69 with my mom.

Thank you very much. I remind myself of that every day, that she is happy and in a better place.

Thanks Cyni. I am 68 and have stage 3 COPD. Only God knows when my time will be up but I look forward to going to my eternal home.
