OT: Mother's funeral.

We buried mother today. I was in awe of the strength my nieces,
daughter demonstrated in giving their eulogies.
Me, I was just a blithering idiot.
So much of my mother's strength has been passed on... all for good.
(Thank God, because being on mother's shitlist was avery bad thing.)

Now to enjoy some time with the remnants of my family.....

...then I'll be back to hound you sunsabiatches....hehehehe

My sincere condolences. I hope you spend the time with your family
celebrating her life rather than mourning her passing.

Ahhhh..., a family of strong women.

How does it feel to be the wimp of the family? ;-)

That is the cycle of life. Many good friends I had when growing up are all
gone now. You make new friends and grow your family. And life goes on.

Robo,
Only when one has lost their Mom can they understand the depth of the hole
left behind. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

We were sad during the ceremony but once we got back to our house, the
mood lightened up and the stories came out.
We then put mother's jewelry box on the table and each received a
piece she had labelled. Then, with the use of coupons, we started a
bidding war for the rest of the pieces. It was a blast. At one time,
one of my nieces went 'all in' and the her sisters said, "well, if you
want it that bad, just take it, keep your coupons..." It was fun...

I've found that the older one gets the tougher it is to participate in
the eulogies.

I watched that demonstrated this past weekend at funeral for a dear
friend. I was content just being a pall bearer this time around.

Uncalled for. If you can't stand sarcasm/cynicism or joking, run out of
here.

Mothers are too special to describe in words. Expressing emotions,
for them, gives us the best perspective of just how special they are.
Those kinds of emotions make us feel better, within ourselves, too,
and we are individually better for having them. Yep, "Therein lie the
real riches of life."

Enjoy the wake as best you can, celebrate her life.
She must have been a wonderful lady, raised a very generous son.

Then take some of that "strength" and apply it to relevant groups. Perhaps
run your lazy ego thru a table saw while you're at it.

RIP, Mom!

I found out today that my 92 year old uncle died yesterday morning. He
became weak while walking somewhere and collapsed. When his knees hit
the ground, it shattered 3 vertebra, a knee, and several ribs. He was
then diagnosed with osteoporosis. Luckily, he lived a very healthy
and happy life until this week. (My dad had all the heart surgeries
and he skated.) Anyway, he came down with an untreatable (for him, in
his state) pneumonia while in the hospital and they sent him home with
a hospice team. He died the next day. I'll miss him, but I didn't see
much of him since moving North. My aunt said they had made peace with
it before he died. I'm glad.
