OT...Very sad news to report....

Hello sisters and brothers, First of all, I have missed you all.  Have been dealing with a very ill son and my in-laws are both doing poorly in the hospital. However...this post is not about me.... I received a call a little bit ago from a very distraught Mary (Baseball-Mom).  Her mom had passed away.  There was no warning, no major illness, etc.  Mary's niece called to tell her that her mom hadn't answered the phone, so Mary drove to her house and found her.  I haven't talked to her in about 2 hours, because the police, medics, etc.  had just arrived.    I am feeling so awful and down.  She of course is so distressed.  Please consider sending her a PM, email (if you have hers), or just post here and I will make sure that she knows to check or I will download all of the posts.  She really needs some love and support right now!!!! Thanks for being here!                                 Hugs, Lora                                                PS-I will post Pittsburgh Palooza info soon....2 1/2 weeks to go!!  Mary will really need this time with our sistahs!! (By the way, if you have her phone #, perhaps give her a call....after a few days though.) 

Oh dear, very sad news indeed.  Please send Mary our love,thoughts and prayers!
