Dear Mom

Last Wednesday morning Dad called to let us know that Mom passed away just minutes before. 

It was not unexpected, but when you realize you will never see your mother again this side of Heaven, that is unexpected.

Mom taught me lots, from sewing, to baking, to taking care of a home, to taking care of a family.

Always in my heart.

Love you, Mom.

That last one makes me cry.  It's Mom and Dad together.

Mom, I really did like those biscuits.
