 | As some of you know my mother had a major stroke a few years ago and recently went into renal failure. She died in her sleep, pain free. Thank God and thank all of you for your prayers.
 She's with God now but she did have one request ...
 The song, The Rose by Bette Midler +lyrics.
 Would someone please play that for me in her honor?
 Thank you.

 | Thank you Dimps, I'm a mess today. My mother's name was Marie, born June 16,1925 she was 87.
 I know she's in heaven now with our family members that have gone before her.
 We've had our differences as most mothers and daughters do. I'm just thankful that our last words were
 I love you.
  
 You all are so sweet, thank you so very much!

 | The Rose  
 
 Some say love it is a river
 That drowns the tender reed
 Some say love it is a razor
 
 
 That leaves your soul to bleed
 
 Some say love it is a hunger
 An endless aching need
 I say love it is a flower
 And you it's only seed
 
 It's the heart afraid of breaking
 That never learns to dance
 It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
 It's the one who won't be taken
 Who cannot seem to give
 And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live
 
 When the night has been too lonely
 And the road has been too long
 And you think that love is only
 For the lucky and the strong
 Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
 Lies the seed
 That with the sun's love
 In the spring
 Becomes the rose

 | My goodness, such beautiful songs and posts. Dimps, Sorp, Art, 103,Shaggy, Hugs.
 They say when your born, your crying and everyone else is smiling
 And when you die, your smiling and everyone else is crying.
 So true!
 I to know my mother is smiling for all the beautiful music you all are playing. What a wonderful way to honor her life.
  Please don't stop at least for today.
 I may be crying but it's for the love you all are showing, thank you so very much!

 | Deep in the night when you lie in your bed wondering at shadows up over your head
 and you pull those soft white sheets to your eyes
 do you whisper to God and ask Him why?
 
 Why is she gone and why did she go?
 you want to know and you want Him to show
 you a reason. So pray as fast as you can.
 But unanswered prayers are a part of the Plan.
 
 But when you ask why and your eyes start to cry
 and you feel so sad that you think you might die,
 listen. Because He will tell you. And cherubs' wings
 hug and hold you snug as they sing
 
 a song so sweet like sirens of lore
 as you slip into dreams of what was before.
 
 And then you will see her far away in her bed
 where she has the covers pulled up over her head
 and she's asking God why as her eyes fill with tears
 and she shakes with the fears that nobody hears her
 when she asks why and her eyes start to cry
 and she feels so lonely she thinks she might die,
 she listens. And He tells her. And angels' wings
 hug and hold her snug as they sing
 
 a song so sweet like sirens of lore
 as she slips into dreams of what was before.
 
 And she sees the little girl far away in her bed
 with the covers pulled up around her head
 and she smiles through the pain
 when He answers 'you will be together again.'
 
 
 
 For your healing process Star...Hope it helps.

 | Ms StarDust  ... When my loving mother died at home (I was her sole caregiver) there were a mountain of family details and arrangements to be taken care of. I hope you are not alone at this sad occassion and have other family and friends gathered around you to lend you the support while you come to terms with your tremendous grief this day.  
 Remember to take care of yourself, first. There will be a terrible burden on grief and loss on your shoulders for the next few days.
  
 Go with God and His love and strength will abideth in you.

 | I keep reading through my tears, the tears of joy from all the love you all are showing and sharing. I know my moms in heaven now.
 I have found some great comfort in the earth angels on this site.
 Love and thanks soooo very much.
 
    
 Cup, my sister and I are doing our best to handle the situation, which is very difficult as my mother was in Kansas unable to be moved near either one of us. My sister is in Arizona, me in Texas and my moms sisters and brothers are in Ohio ..
 I'm doing all I can from here and so is my sister.
 Love will find a way.
 Thank you.

 | My Dear Dear Star~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 My second thought of reading here today was with a smile, hoping that maybe by some chance my mom will see your mom arriving where ever they have gone and sitting down together and talk of you and me.
 
 
 I am posting this song for you and the family.....when we had the gathering after my mom was buried.........my dad sang this for so many present.....It was all I had in me to stand there and video it. He taught us this song for his mother when we were very young and it stays with me now.
 
 I am sorry...star!

 | Star, I am so sorry for loss. 
 My sister died 23 weeks ago today.
 
 I read this at the chapel.
 
 Going home, going home
 I am going home
 Quiet like, some still day
 I am going home
 
 It's not far, just close by
 Through an open door
 Work all done, care laid by
 Never fear no more
 
 Mother's there expecting me
 Father's waiting too
 Lots of faces gathered there
 All the friends I know
 
 I'm just going home
 No more fear, no more pain
 No more stumbling by the way
 No more longing for the day
 Going to run no more
 
 Morning star lights the way
 Restless dreams all gone
 Shadows gone, break of day
 Real life has begun
 
 There's no break, there's no end
 Just a living on
 Wide awake with a smile
 Going on and on
 
 Going home, going home
 I am going home
 Shadows gone, break of day
 Real life has begun
 
 I'm just going home

 | Words cannot convey how much each and everyone of you have touched my heart, so very deeply I can barely type through my tears again. All of you are so beautiful in your words and music.
 Irene, I know they are sharing and sending love our way, Trisha, that was beautiful, thank you so much.
 My sister needs a liver transplant, I don't want to think of it now.
 Tweet, Taken, Mr.U.
 Emotion,Bin, laff, ,wind, blessed,Alicia,to many to mention, I apologize if I've left anyone out, I'm kinda out of it myself.
 Just thanks so much to everyone.

 | So sorry for your loss; I dearly hope you had the chance to hug her and to tell her how much you love her before she passed. I didn't have that chance. 
 For your Mom...

 | My condolences Star. There really isn't much to say during times like this, but to feel, and share your grief. Sounds like your mother had the greatest gift of all, a family that loved her.

 | Holding You and your family close at heart during this time. Many Prayers are being sent your way.
  God Bless and Much Love
 A Dedication to your Mom.
  
 
 
 
 Some say love, it is a river
 that drowns the tender reed.
 Some say love, it is a razor
 that leaves your soul to bleed.
 
 Some say love, it is a hunger
 an endless aching need.
 I say love, it is a flower
 and you its only seed.
 
 It's the heart afraid of breaking
 that never learns to dance,
 It's the dream afraid of waking, that never takes the chance.
 It's the one who won't be taken,
 who cannot seem to give
 and the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live.
 
 When the night has been too lonely
 and the road has been too long,
 and you think that love is only
 for the lucky and the strong.
 
 Just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snows
 lies the seed
 that with the sun's love
 in the spring
 becomes the rose
