Nick's mom passed away last night, one day before her 93rd birthday. The family was gathering last night at the nursing home to have a birthday dinner with her. Nick had stopped by to see her earlier in the afternoon and they talked a little. Nick's sister came with my father-in-law about a half hour before Nick's mom passed away. They had been married for over seventy years.
We all know it's for the best, but it's hard. She was my mother-in-law for thirty-four years and I couldn't possible have had a better one. All she ever wanted to do was take care of her family. She was a lovely, sweet woman and she'll be greatly missed.
PK I'm so sorry to hear your sad news. Such a hard time just before her birthday and right on Christmas. Its never easy even when you are expecting it to happen. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
