    RIP Mum

    I did not know exactly where to put this so here goes.

    My Mum died in her sleep yesterday.

    At 74 she lived a good life and was loved by all 4 of her children and all 8 of her grandchildren.

    If I am rude or abusive over the next 48 hours please excuse me. If you have walked this path before me you have my deepest sympathy.

    Thank you in advance.

    My condolences. I still have both my parents, but they are in their late 70's. You can prepare yourself for it, but you are never ready.

    My condolences as well. I lost my mother at age 21. I always thought it rather sad that I never got the chance to interact with her as an adult.

    My sincerest condolences........I'm very thankful to still have mine at ages 86 and 88, but one never knows when the time will come they are called home. Like was stated earlier, we can prepare but not be ready.

    My mom died in 1989 and my dad in 1990. My wife never got to meet either of my parents. May you always carry with you the fond memories the two of you shared.
