Jennifer's mom passed away peacefully last night. She suffered with alzheimers for the past few years, and was was under full time care at the time. It's obvious to me she raised a wonderful family with all kinds of kids and grandkids!
It's never easy to loose a parent. Can ya all say a short prayer and send your warm thoughts off to Daddys Girl today? Even though her mom's in a much better place, Jennifer misses her terribly right now...
Thanks.

Lots of Love being sent your way Girly! Please let us know if there is anything that Nina and I can do for you and the boys...
Late last night Jennifer's Mom passed away. She had been suffering from Alzheimer's (sp?) and just couldn't hold on any longer. They will have a small cremation ceremony to be announced. Jennifer knows this post is being started and can use the support of her entire GD family. Jennifer, if there is anything I or "we" can do to help in this difficult time, it only takes a phone call or pm. If anyone has lost a family member, I am sure Jennifer would love to hear from you.
Added to the prayer list.
sorry for your loss jen

Very sorry for your loss...

Jennifer, I am very sorry to hear about your Mom. I'm keeping you and the boys in my thoughts and prayers. If I can do anything at all, please let me know!
so sorry for the loss
Prayers for you and your family.
Thanks to all of you, my GD family, for your prayers and support. The phone calls and messages have been much needed and welcome, and have shown me how blessed I am to have been led to this site and to you. Words cannot begin to describe how much you all mean to me. I love you all.
The hardest part for me so far has been telling the boys. I dreaded that moment, and it hurt like heck to do it. We sat together and had a good cry afterwards. I only wish I could've had a 2nd set of arms--they each should've a pair holding them tight.
My mother's condition was pretty well progressed toward the end. She was unable to do much for herself, and there were times that she wouldn't recognize me, even though she knew who my boys were. From beginning to end, it was a short, rocky ride. The signs started manifesting themselves only about 5 years ago, and we didn't feel the need to place her in full-time care until the fall of '07. She's in a much better place now, back with my father--the love of her life--who passed 10 years ago last month. She was never completely happy unless she was nagging him about something! I've heard that when we move on, we're back in the body of our youth...if so, there's gonna be trouble in paradise!

That was beautiful, getting a little teary here.
Good morning Baby Girl, I hope every day gets a little better.
There is a lot to be said for the passing of time.

and prayers sent..Seriously?
I just spent several days in the hospital with my grandfather. We were all there as he died all his children, all his grandchildren, and his wife. It was one of the most precious moments of my life. My grandfather had Alzheimer’s. I know beyond the shadow of a doubt that he left this life in his ravaged body and went to eternal paradise where death has no sting. I watch him take his last fleeting breath, and the words I have memorized came to my mind, "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."
Sorry for your loss, I hope you have peace.
The Memorial Service For Jennifer's mom is today.
Please keep Jennifer in your thoughts and prayers.
