Hobie,

I can't believe you began this post with an apology. NONE NEEDED BROTHER....we're like family here and you're one of the best.

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss. Sounds like you had a wonderful Mother and she had a full and fun life.

All the best my friend,

Well Hobie, not sure what to say other than to say I appreciate the man she raised that you are and you've always set a good example for me here and elsewhere.

Hobie - I'm sorry to hear this, and you and your Mom have my prayers. She sounds like a great lady, and she obviously did a great job raising her son.

We lost my Mom this past summer, age 89. It's tough when you come from a close and caring family. We talked every day, and when that's gone it leaves a hole in your life.

I hope that all of the great stuff you remember about your Mom helps to ease the pain of the loss. God bless. - DixieBoy

My most sincere condolences. I can relate. My Mother suffers the same affliction.

It is very difficult to see the ones we love lose interest and understanding in the very things that made them special and unique. It takes a special person to look past that to remember only the good times while "filing" the rest. It appears your Mother raised a special son.
