My Mother's gone...a 3 year tribute

    My Mother's gone.

    I was thinking about Dave Newman's eulogy to his mother and how sad that was to me that he didn't have a good relationship with her.

    I lost my mother two days ago and I, too, must give a eulogy.

    But my situation was different. You see, my mother raised 7 kids and yet she had time for each one of us. She had the ability to make each one feel special and that each one was her favorite.
    She had so much love in her that even my bad ass brother learned to develop love from her example.

    I don't mind telling you that I'm hurting. I hurt for losing the umbilical cord that even though I'm no longer a kid, I was always her kid. If I was hurting I still could go see or call Mom and the hurt would go away..I'm hurting now and she's not here..I love her and miss her..and I guess now it's time to grow up.

    But Damn..I miss her...and in a way only a son would know.

    Oh Braves. I am so sorry. Your post is so sweet and it is making me cry. Your mother was so fortunate to have a son like you.

    I am so sorry, Braves. My mom is getting to the age where I'm beginning to worry about losing her. It will be the saddest day of my life. My heart goes out to you. I wish you luck with your eulogy.

    Sorry about that Braves. I don't think I could do it if my mother died. I would be too torn up to speak. She raised up some good kids judging from the one I know.
