I am sorry for your loss. We often experience many different kinds of change throughout our lives. The most difficult challenge that I experienced was when my mother passed away. A mother is the most important person in each of our lives. She taught us nearly all that we needed to learn to get by in life. Even after we've set out on our own, our mother continued to be a valuable person in our adult life. She remained a reservoir of wisdom and love. She has always been and always will be our mother. Even when she is no longer with us in a physical sense, she still remains a mother to her children. The sadness lifts slowly through the years, but one still fondly remembers the important lessons, the wise advise and the excellent times that we had with our mothers. Those fond feelings of love are the ones that grow stronger each year. You and your family are in my prayers, as I extend to you my sympathy during this time of change.
