Always an uneasy subject to discuss, but I have to let my Forestry Forum Family know!
My mom passed this morning around 5:45, lots of family and friends were there to say their goodbyes.
Mom has been dealing with congestive heart failure for around two years.
She was coherent almost to the very end, so we all got the chance to speak with her, and she was speaking to us as well.
Mom would have turned 84 on July 7th.
She is now at peace with everything and she is in heaven with Dad and two of my brothers.
Thanks to all of you folks for being family too!
sad news in the family, you have my condolences. it is good to hear everyone had thier say. prayers sent.

Sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss.
I lost my mom 2 years ago and, like you, we knew time was short and we all gathered around. I voice recorded our last conversation.
Being able to say goodbye doesn't make it easier but at least you will not harbor any regrets of words left unsaid.
You and your family have my sincere sympathy.
It's sad to lose a loved one but comforting knowing where they have gone and that when your time comes, you will be reunited in a far better place. Jan and I hold you in our prayers.
geeze Chuck been off the forum for a few days
Sorry for your loss.
Hope to see you in Degrasse this summer.

Funny thing about Mommas they dont ever leave you. Mine butts into my thoughts acouple of times a week. You might have lost her but she will always me on the tip of your mind. She has made a path to her and layed it in you. She wouldnt just cut you loose she is and will always be your momma after all. So dont give her any reasons, you know if you embaress her she is going to let you know about it later.
Chuck, sorry to hear about your loss. Prayers sent.
Chuck, so sorry to hear your news, our prayers are with you and your family, David
Sorry for your loss. May God comfort and strengthen you all in this time of loss.
Sorry to hear this, Chuck. Glad she was surrounded by her loved ones. When my grandma died last year, my dad made it just in time to have one final conversation with her before she died. It meant a lot to her and I know it meant the world to him. I will be praying for you and your family.
Chuck,
May she rest in peace.
Sorry to hear about your mother nothing like the memories you have.
Very sorry for your Loss Chuck. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Chuck. really sorry for your loss. Lost my Mom 13 years ago and her name comes up almost daily. She is in a better place and at peace. God bless....
Condolences and prayers to you and your family. We lost my dad to cancer when he was only 60. No matter what age or how sick it is really tough to give them up.
Glad your mom was surrounded by loved as she departed. I believe she is now surrounded by lots of other loved ones and God's infinite love.
As others have said, keep all those good memories. She will be with you in spirit.
My sincere condolences to you and your family Chuck.
I can't imagine how I'll deal with the loss of one of my folks when the time comes, but I can say with the utmost confidence that I will assuredly see them again someday.
With the exception of one brother, everyone in my family are all born again believers, and although the pain of losing a parent will be tough to bear, we all will have an inner peace knowing that their new dwelling will be perfect and pain free.
God Bless.
Chuck, I am very sorry to hear of your loss. It is inevitable but that sure does not make it any easier. She left knowing she was loved, none of us can ask for more.
Sorry to hear, you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Keep the faith. Andy
Our thoughts and prayers are also with all of your family Chuck, very sorry to hear this.
Sorry for your loss, Chuck. I lost my mom in June of 06, that is when her body died. She had memory loss for several years before that, and the first time I went home to visit and she did not know who I was is when I considered that she died.
I have not decided if it is easier to take when you know what is comming or when it happens suddenly. My good friends across the road have their youngest daughter, husband and 2 boys, ages 11 and 8 living on the back side of their property. The husband came home from work 2 weeks ago and she (the daughter) was cold on their bed. They did an autopsy but just to make sure there was no foul play. She has had a lot of health problems all her life, but at 34, it was quite a shock to all of us.
My mom, like yours, is now with my dad and brother, both of whom proceeded her to the other side.
Chuck
Very sorry to hear of your loss. Condolences to you and to your family
Mom was laid to rest this afternoon and she is at peace, and in the house of the Lord now!
She is with Dad and two of my brothers!
She'll be sorely missed, but it will get easier on those of us left behind as time goes bye!
Thank you all for your kind words!
Chuck & Sheila
