My Loss

My Loss  (E) This is a lament about the death of my mother. #2055646 by Chris Breva

My mother died yesterday, August 30, 2015 at the age of 76. She had atrial fibrilation, copd, and a variety of other ailments. Life will not be the same without her but I am not going to mourn. I know she isn't suffering now. Of that I am am very glad. She was a stern mother at times and often seemed to rule with an iron fist, yet we knew we were loved. I will miss my nightly conversations with her. I know she's conversing with my deceased sister now and catching up on bygone years. Good bye Mom. I love you.
