A HERETIC I AM's Mother left us this morning.

Last edited Fri Aug 8, 2014, 03:05 PM - Edit history (1)

I woke up to this text from him:

"My mom passed away at 6:30 this morning Thought you would like to know. I'm on the road back to Detroit Be done around noon. Peace"

Take a moment if you will and let him know we're thinking about him and his family.

Paul, there are no words My Friend that could accurately convey my heartfelt condolences. Thank the stars She went to the other side peacefully. I'll talk to you soon.

{{{MUCH LOVE}}}}
Chris

EDIT - There is a photo down thread of Janet on her wedding day. Many thanks to Jefferson23 for posting it.

I tried, but it seemed that suddenly everyone around me was cutting onions and my phone wouldn't work right.

Just beautiful. A great way to remember her. Thank you cherokeeprogressive, for this thread.

And for A HERETIC I AM, many hugs and loving thoughts and sympathy and empathy and prayer and all the good things. You do not mourn alone.

Watch for sign from her. I am sure you will get one. You just need to know to recognize it.

Even if it's a green tweezers.
