Jim!

It was ten years ago today that my mom passed away.

My Mom

Since I find it hard to say anything I shall simply post what I wrote on a very early version of my website about 9 years ago.

Another sadness that has struck my family is that on June 2, 1999, 14 days from what would have been her 55th birthday, my Mother died.  This was  a tremendous, sudden blow to our Family, and a change that I’ll never be able to fully get over.  She was different than most mothers, and was more than just a mother, but a friend to many, many people, especially to me.  There are things that happen to me daily that remind me of her and that I would love to bring to her attention, but forever, now, they will live inside of me, waiting for the day when I can see her again.  Now, over a year after her death, I still find myself thinking about her every day.  It hasn’t really gotten any easier, and my heart hurts when I think of her.

I Miss You, Mom.
