A day never goes by that I don’t recall with fondness my dear old Mother. She was the best person I ever knew, at times it was almost unbelievable just how kind and gentle she could be.

She left us at age 85 to be with the Lord. I sometimes think God created her just to be the Mother of 5 little babies.

I know the Marines motto is “Semper Fidelis”. The same could be said of Mother. Always faithful.

What a tragedy for so many who never even get to breathe their first breath let alone experience the love of their parents.

My Mom passed away at 84. My wife told me that she thought my Mom treated me like I was her favorite.

I don’t know if that’s true, but I never ever felt like she didn’t love me.
