My beautiful, wonderful, loving Mom went to be with her Savior today at 97. Just thought I would let you guys, my friends, know. Thanks for indulging me with this post, guys.

Sorry to hear that Mr Roberts! You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. It's tough to lose a parent.
My 93 year old father passed in February and it's tough to reconcile at times. When visiting my mom, in the course of my conversation with her, I still find myself referring to both of them occasionally, as if he were sitting at his usual spot at the table or in his easy chair in the living room.

Sorry for your loss. I miss my late father every day. I still have a recorded message on my phone answering machine. Copied it onto a couple other devises but can not bring myself to delete it. Silly I know but hearing his voice is a comfort sometimes. What I would give for just one more conversation with him. God bless you in this time and comfort you as well.

It requires no indulgence to be able to grieve with a friend, and lift them up in prayer. May you and Judy feel the presence of the Lord as you find your own ways of saying "So long". It isn't "Goodbye", as you both know, only "Farewell for now". It is so much easier to go through this when you know the eternal destiny of the loved one is secured in Jesus.
You are in my prayers tonight, tomorrow, and in succeeding days.
God bless you, SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

John,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Fortunately, the bond between a mother and son can never be broken even through such a loss.

It is never easy to lose anyone that is beautiful, wonderful and loving, especially a parent and specifically a mother. Mine has been gone for over eight years now and that void has never fully filled for me. Recently, a women that was involved with my only sibling for many years sent him a photograph of the marker for our parent's grave (neither of us live anywhere nearby). She had gone way out of her way to put flowers on it for Mother's Day, stating that our mother had been like one for her as well. The best mothers clearly affect lots of folks in their lifetimes and are the greatest gift to us all. I feel for your loss.

I am sorry to hear of your loss,John. There is never a time in a man's life when he is 'ready' for the loss of a parent. Your mother lived a long life in what may turn out to be the best of times...Geo
