Howie I am so sorry for your loss. If there is anything you need that I can help out with, you know how to find me.

Howie,  Sorry for your loss.  It was nice to read that she saw everyone before she began her journey with the God.  That makes it a little bit better to deal with all around, but nothing is as strong as the love between a children and their Mom and Mom and her Children, so I know it's tough.  I'm not big on grave sites, but what has worked for me is planting a flowering tree, or perennial flower bed(something that comes back every year).  Whenever I see the tree or flowers whether in full bloom or in the fall, I always think of the person I planted it for.

Howie, Lou and I are so very sorry to hear of your mom passing. She sounds like a great lady and was so lucky to have you as a son. It's a very tough time but, as you said, she is pain free now and in a better place watching over you all. Our deepest condolences to you and your family Howie. You are, and will continue to be, in our thoughts and prayers....  Lou and Greg

Oh yeah, the other thing to wake up to! Thanks again to all for your caring and concern! I appreciate everyone's offer to help. Really nothing to be done now though, but thank ya'll. I'll be making plans today for the funeral tomorrow. A first for me. But as the oldest sibling, I'll take that on. Thanks for keeping us in your thoughts!

Howie,

I am so sorry to hear about your mom.  I lost my mom 5 years ago and I think about her every day.  Also my mind is fresh about what you're going through so I wanted to give you my little bit of advice of how to cope with these terrible times.
 
After my mom died, every time that I thought of her,  that achy, burning feeling just above my heart would start and I would feel so sad.  It went on for over a year.  Think of her, and that sadness would overtake me.
 
Then one day, I thought of her and I smiled.  I thought about all of the good times we had from the days that I was a child, to more recent things that we shared. (This is when I knew that my mourning phase was coming to an end.)  Yep, now when I think of her I smile.  Oh yeah, I still miss her, but the good memories outweigh the sadness.
 
May your "smile" come soon.....

Sorry to hear of your loss.

I am sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my mother when i was 17, it was hard. She was one of the first heart bypass surgeries performed. She suffered ever day after the surgery. She passed 3 days before Christmas I still feel it was her best gift. The only regrets are that my children and grandchildren never had her in their life's.

Keep a strong heart and time will pass but the memories will always remind you of the great times you had together.

Condolences to you and the rest of your family and your moms friends.

[Mrs Rooster]

 Hoist, we feel your pain and the sadness that comes with the loss of a family member. Mom's and Dad's have to be tough, not looking forward to that one. Hope your heart mends quickly and memories live forever.

[Lil-Bit]

So sorry to hear about your loss.  Losing a parent isn't easy.  Lost my dad which was Wrongways' best friend 10 years ago and what gets us through it is remembering all the good times we've shared, even still today.  Just keep remembering all the good times you've had with Mom and the pain will get easier.
