My mother gave up her battle this morning at 1:22 . She passed peacefully in my arms with amazing grace playing gently in the background. I feel so fortunate to have had this wonderful woman as a Mother. I feel even more fortunate to have been able to spend her last moments with her. This is not going to be easy but I feel so much better knowing that she is in heaven with my brothers and  that she is whole again. Thank you guys for all of your thoughts and prayers in these final months.Rita

Oh, Rita. I'm so sorry for your loss. My mother moved to heaven 7 years ago this Sunday, surrounded by her family, my father praying, my sister singing "In His Presence." Everyone had their eyes closed but me. I didn't want to miss a thing. My mom, who had been in a coma, woke up, looked at each of us, and passed away. So I understand the mixture of blessing and pain of being there.
It does help to visualize where she is now and how she is now. If I could, I would give you the warmest hug in me. I'm sending it on the Kansas breeze. My prayers continue for you, as you walk this valley.
Lovingly,
Mary

Rita I am so sorry to hear about your mother. It is hard when we loose our mothers but It is so comforting to have that assurance that when a loved one passes that heaven is their new home.  I myself lost my mother 6 years ago after a 15 yr. struggle with Alzheimer's.  May God comfort you and your family through this time, and may the memories of your mother bring you joy and happiness. I will be praying for you and your family.  Lisa

Rita~ Sweet Girl!
I am so sad for your loss. It is a stunningly sacred event to hold a loved one as they pass from this life to the next. I held my beloved Grandma and released her to go on to her everlasting home. Standing with you in prayer. We love you! ~ Lisa (ilovemylife)

Rita, I am so sorry for your loss but I do rejoice with you in that you know your precious Mom is indeed in heaven right now.  She will suffer no more.  I'm so glad you were able to be with her as she passed from this life on to the next life, the perfect life!!  I'll be thinking of you and praying for you and your family during this time.  I know you will miss her but find comfort in knowing she's no longer in pain.  May God Bless you during this time.  (((Huggs)))
