My Mother passed away last night at 9pm

Harriett Louise Croft Bancroft passed away at 2100 hours, May 24, 2015. She died peacefully and at rest My mother was born Oct 15, 1924 in Worcestor, Massachusetts. Her mom was named Ethel Fudge Croft, her dad Morrell Croft. Both were originally from Canada. Her mom's family came from Ireland in the mid 1800's, her Dad's family came from Holland in the 1600's on a ship named THE ANN and they spelled their name KRAFT then smile emoticon I was with her alone when she passed. My sister Jeannie was on the phone saying goodbye to her and she told me to find a Church hymn to sing to her, so I looked in my Bible for the church bulletin to find the songs we sang last Sunday or Wenesday, when I noticed she stopped breathing. It was almost 10 seconds after Jeannie hung up and Mom stopped breathing. She was in no pain, she went softly.

Even living a long and fulfilled life and dying peacefully.....it still breaks our heart to know they’re gone from us.

God bless and comfort you and your family.

My prayers for you and yours. God bless Carol. Taking care of parents at the end is a hard job, but it brings its rewards.

I was able to care for my mother for four months of her last year.

I’m very sorry for your loss. My dad was from Worcester too and a couple of years younger than your mom. Maybe they knew each other.

I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother, Race. I believe the angels are singing to her now. Prayers for your family and your sister, Carol. She sounds like a wonderful care taker and I can only imagine the amount of stress/work that would involve. (((Hugs))) Mom
