It's a sad day...
Usually, I try to make my posts upbeat and maybe a little humourous. I am afraid I cannot do that today.
My sister and I have just lost our mother at the tender age of 87. She would have been 88 on December 21st. It was a combination of an appendics attack, pneumonia, fluid in the lungs, three heart attacks and an unpronounceable intestinal disease she picked up in hospital.
She passed away at home with the immediate family by her side.
I hope you can understand why I have not been active on the forums for the past number of weeks.
When all the formalities are attended to and things settle down, I will be back.

Keith, Sincere condolences to you and your family on the loss of your mom.. You take care of the family there. WA will still be here when you are prepared to return.
My heart goes out you and your family. It is my belief your mother is in a better place...no more pain, no more suffering, and is now at peace. God bless you
My sincere condolences. I can well imagine how heavy your heart must feel today. My mother was 84 yesterday - she nearly died just over 2 years ago contracting some sort of intestinal infection while in hospital. She is now struggling with cancer therapy, and the fact that she lives in a different country means that my daughter and I spend a lot of time travelling to and fro to be with her and support her, but still I tend to feel guilty for not being there for her.
Thinking of you during this difficult time.
Keith I know you where expecting this.
But still it is a day you can never prepare yourself for.
It is a very sad time when it happens.
My sincere condolences.
Steve.
I am sorry for your loss and I also know the pain of loosing a parent. My dad pasted years ago while I was in the service but my mom is now 83 and I imagine I'll loose her someday soon. I don't even like to think of that. I am sorry you have to experience the loss of your mother.
There are no words Keith-- Only cyber hugs
I figured something was up when I noticed I hadn't seen your posts for awhile. My mother is 83 and I know she has lived a long and productive life, I still want it to go on longer.
