A year of Loss


Alright, so it was one year ago today that I lost me mother. That got me to thinking, that I lost two mothers in a twelve month span. My mother last April, and my mother in law in January.

Strangely enough, that is the second time I have lost two "parents" in a twelve month span. In 1994 we lost my step-father Bill, and then my father on December 20, 1994.

So one year ago today my sister Densie called me at 2:35am to inform me my mother had passed. We were not close over the past years, but she was still my mother. We won't talk about regrets or anger, just remember the good things, and the better days.

May you be safe and warm Mom, and say hello to the family for me.

Happy Birthday Steve

It will be my brother's birthday on April 9th. It is amazing how we change over the DECADES.
We no longer communicate, but he's still my brother and a living picture of my departed Uncle Dave.
