    Default family & friends

    lost my mom last night, so lost right now, not knowing what to do.
    Judy Davidson born 11-04-43 and survived by 3 children. she was very special to me and now all i have are memories. i lost my father when i was 15, 29 yrs ago. the only happiness i can find is that she is no longer suffering and i pray she is back with the love of her life, my dad.
    so stop what your doing and give ole' mom or dad a call, and tell them you love them.

    Hold on to that. Take time to mourn her passing but take time to celebrate her life too. Sounds like she raised some great kids. Sorry for your loss.

    So sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad a week before Thanksgiving and it was very unexpected. I remember that feeling of completely being lost. Hang in there.

    Sorry for your loss Crumb. I lost my Dad in '83 and my Mom in '91. Both were relatively young (in their 50's). Keep their memories in your thoughts and heart.

    So sorry for the loss of your mom.

    Each person we meet fills us in some way, even if we only shelter with them for a night on the trail. Every loss is a reminder to cherish our time with our loved ones and to treasure every person touching our lives.
