  Having been at the bedsides of both of my parents as they slipped into the "next phase," I can empathize with you as your mother takes her journey. Take comfort in her long and wonderful life and what she has meant to you and your family, and know that many are thinking of you at this difficult time.

  Hi Wm.
I don't really know you, but Laura brought to my attention the sorrow and grief you and your sister are going through, so I can't help thinking of you now.
The hardest thing in life is to say goodbye. I've had to do that to both my parents.
And I'm also thinking what a blessing it is that you and your sister have a Mother that is such a wonderful Mother and she is blessed with having children like you.
I'm also thinking that it's a blessing to have the chance to say all the things that you have in your heart.
Sometimes you don't get that chance.

  Wm, you are going trough one of Life's most painful transitions ~ the loss of a parent, who's given you unconditional love all your life.
So many thoughts and prayers are going out to you and your sister for the needed strength to see your mother through that transition.
Just think, though: for your mother, the change will be such a joyful one, since she'll be free of pain, and finally reunited with the love of her life.
Please hold that in your heart, along with all the wonderful memories you and your mother shared. May such thoughts give you peace in the days ahead.

May all of our peaceful prayers reach you and your family to have strength to see your mom through her transition. It is indeed, one of the most difficult times, losing a loved one, especially our mothers.

Laura, this is one gorgeous card. And the angel is one of my favorite! 8o)

  Oh Wm. What a long road you have all travelled together, may it be filled with memories to tide you over in the sorrow filled times ahead!

I really don't know what to say, my memories of my mother are very dim, she died when I was only twelve years of age, far too young on both of us.

Your mother has been with you all these years loving you, looking after you, all the things your father was unable to do because of his early death.

Now it is time for her to go, to be once more again with Frank. I hope the journey ahead is a smooth one!

Godspeed!

Pat and Graham Robards
Best wishes

Pat

  Hi Wm! Sorry I'm so late! If you can, please add me to that map of yours. I'm here in Toronto (CANADA) thinking and praying for you, your mom and your family! I've lost my mom, but my dad is 96! I dread the day when he will be gone as well ... but I know that he will be happy in heaven with my mom. I hope that you and your sister will cling to the good times and cherish the beautiful memories you have of her ... and remember your BP friends are always here for support! Take care, dear friend.

  Yes. Anywhere. Anytime. And that is how it works. When memories are all we have they get more precious and more sweet every day and every week and every month and every year. This is how we cope with losing our mothers or losing anyone for that matter. I know you know this already. I am glad your mom is still here for you to kiss and to talk to and hold her hand. These days and hours have been and always will be very precious ones to add to all of the rest. She has loved wearing her super woman suit, Wm. God will help her slip it off in his right time and she will be in his loving care. Wow. Think of the miracles she is about to encounter. It's what the rest of us can only dream of. Lucky her. :)

  Thank you for coming back to tell us, Wayne. I just prayed that she finds herself safely in Gods care and that he leaves you this peace in your hearts knowing she is with him. I wonder so often what the experience is once our souls slip from these bodies. Anyone who has partially or fully experienced this before, that I have spoken to, say they are not afraid of passing away ever again afterwards. That it was wonderful for them. I hope this can be the peace in your heart, Wm. For you and your sister and all who you are close to there. It is my peace here right now for you and your Mom.

Hug hug!
-Laura
