I will never cease to miss her. She was a paragon of the genre "lovely people." She was a fantastic mother with a soft heart, a common sense mind, and a lot of practical energy. She bravely tried a fairly new surgery but could not make it through the hospital stay despite fabulous doctors and nurses. Please think of her, and think nicely. She will be the first to welcome us to the beautiful place where she now abides. Love you, Mom.
Jackie and I served together on the board of directors of our HOA at Williamsburg. I would have never made it without her guidance, wisdom and wicked sense of humor. I treasure her memory and the time we spent together. Love to her family Ellen Amirkhan Oriental Rug Cleaning Co
Being with Mom is more a pleasure than an obligation; Time spent with her is good and restful time. The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; She fights shortness of breath and it scares her when she feels she cannot get enough air; But she recovers her stability and paces herself well. The operation should help her regain a better quality of life. He leads me beside still waters: He restores my soul. He leads me in right paths for his name?s sake. Mom was supposed to come out of the operation well, with flying colors, even, But she has been in ICU for days now. This is scary. Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil. But she keeps her sense of humor, and it seems she is more worried about our, her kids, feelings than her own. For you are with me; Your rod and your staff ? they comfort me. The treatments are not working, it looks like we will surely lose her. I want to fight and vanquish this dread specter. You prepare a table before me In the presence of my enemies; Holding her hand as she died was actually helpful, I think. She had her eyes open for the last half-hour after being unresponsive for most of the day. I think, once again, she was more concerned about us than about herself. You anoint my head with oil; My cup overflows. I remind myself that you are the loving parent of us all, and she is now with you just as we will be with her again. Her love was and is a living proof that your love for us is just as real. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord My whole life long.

Michelle, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. You and your family are in my prayers. Vicki (Beasley) Vanderslice
I will never cease to miss her. As lovely people go, she was a paragon of the genre. She was a fantastic parent with a soft heart, a common sense mind, and lots of energy with a practical bent. Her passing was somewhat of a relief, for her anyway, as she was fighting low energy and shortness of breath for the last couple years. She bravely tried a fairly new surgery which proceeded well, but she could not take the complications of the hospital stay, despite fabulous doctors and nurses. Please think of her, and think nicely. She will be the first welcoming us into the beautiful place where she is now when it comes our turn. Peace, Mom. We love you.
I love you. You were my second mom. I so appreciated all your support, wisdom and love through the years. I am happy that you are well now. You can walk the dogs as long as you want. You can deadhead your plants as long as you want. And you are singing without suffering. We will see you again. Love, Sparkie
Heartfelt prayers for comfort to you and your family as you grieve your mother.
