In Memory of Momma Angel

Hey Folks, What do you all think about setting aside a time on Sunday as a memorial tribute to Momma Angel? Let's say 9:00- 10:00 pm...Either turn your porch light on for the hour or light a candle. Then spend some time on the surgery pages of those having surgery in the week to come, passing on the love and concern she showered on each of us for years. Also, for the whole day, I plan to drive with my lights on to honor her. She was a beacon for many of us, making sure we knew we were not alone on this path and the way was clear. What do ya'll think??? Happy thoughts, Va Was/Am/Wannabe 232/177/130

Thanks Miss D! I have posted this to the Main board and to my Surgery date Board. If your Surgery date board is still active would you mind posting the message there? Thanks, Va

What happened to momma angel.Ive been off the board for awhile and missed it.

About 3 weeks ago she was hospitalized with breathing difficulties. She ended up on a vent, and steadily declined from there. By choice she did not have WLS, so that is not an issue in her death. She passed away last week, her funeral was last weekend. Va

I MISSED THIS POST TO TURN LIGHTS OR LIGHT A CANDLE....I WAS OUT OF TOWN WITH SOME WLS FRIENDS....SO THIS SUNDAY I WILL HONOR HER! THAT WAS A GREAT IDEA AND WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN HOME TO DO SO. TAKE CARE! MUCH LOVE, KIM WAS/AM 227/110

Who was Momma Angel? Janie

First off Momma Angel was the unofficial OH welcoming committee. She took it upon herself to see to it that every member was welcomed to the site. Just about every person on this site has a message from Momma Angel on their surgery page. Momma Angel chose some time ago not to have WLS, she became ill about 3 1/2 to 4 weeks ago. Was hospitalized with breathing difficulties, then ended up on a vent and passed away last week. Her funeral was last weekend. We are trying to keep up her good work of making sure surgery pages are attended to by the whole group. You can find more detailed info on the Main Message board but you will have to go back through to last week. At least 100 to 150 pages. :eek: Here's a link to her page, which has become a very special memorial to her loving spirit. http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/profile.phtml?N=b1015026750 Va
