Over twenty-eight years ago, I married and gained a mother-in-law. She welcomed me into her family with open arms and a warm heart. For twenty-eight years this wonderful woman treated me not like a son-in-law, but like her own flesh-and-blood son.She enriched my life by simply being a part of it.
For those who may not have known, my wife's mother has been seriously ill now for some time. Her struggle ended this evening. Darlene passed away peacefully in her sleep.
Your thoughts and prayers for my wife's family is appreciated.Heaven welcomed a new angel tonight.

I'm sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you and your wife's family.
ReplyDeleteI know that feeling. 72 is just too young. Back in August 2011 my grandma passed away when she was 71. Sorry for your loss.

She's gone home, and she's no longer in pain. Remember her life and her love for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteMy deepest appreciation to all of you. She didn't fear dying; she just didn't want to die while alone. Surrounded by loving family in those final hours, being alone was one fear she never had to face. The presence of so many by her side served as a testament to how many lives she unselfishly touched.
ReplyDeleteJeff, I'm so sorry :(
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cristina. I'm glad I had the opportunity to meet you in person though.
