Dear Marsha and Margie,
Roger and I send our deepest condolences on the loss of your mom.
Your mom has always been thought of and will always been missed. I carry a lot of memories from childhood... She always let me drink tea (against my mom's wishes)...and I still drink it to this day. I always tell folks how I became such a tea lover...so your mom will always be mentioned!!!
Losing our moms is one of life's most difficult of times...the journey we move forward on is new, scary, angering, loving and deeply personal...but...the journey becomes "different" over time. Allow yourself to go through all of the stages.
May each of you and all of the grand/great grandkids be comforted by memories that make you smile as you begin the journey of life without her physical presence.
With deepest sympathy and LOTS of love...
Love,
Robbie
