Even though my mom and dad are 82 and 88, I had convinced myself it would be years before I woudl be writing a note like this one.
My mom, Vivian, passed away in the early morning hours on January 3.
After emergency surgery on Sunday, her heart was simply not strong enough to pull her through. My sister Aggie, my dad and I were with her at the end. And she passed peacefully and in no pain. I guess one can’t ask for more than that.
A couple of you are in the NJ area and are long-time NJRC friends. Those that aren’t please bear with me for a moment.
Mom’s obituary and a guest book are online at http://www.oliveriefuneralhome.com/

Paul… You are in our prayers. Although we have never met other than the connection on this forum, I understand the loss you are experiencing. I went through that with the loss of my mom a few years ago. But the pain of losing her will go away and be replaced with warm memories. And she will never be very far away.

"If one thing matters, everything matters" - from the book The ShackI’m sorry to hear this news, Paul. You and your dad will be in my thoughts and I wish you well.
Paul, I’m sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. I agree with what Allen said having gone thru the loss of my parents as well as my wife’s parents who were in many ways as close as my own. The memories become special treasures that nothing can take away.
Paul – I just saw this – I was sorry to hear brother –
After loosing my Dad,brother and my best and oldest
childhood friend in the last two years I can feel your
pain.
I have you in my prayers – give me a call or email if you
ever need to talk – it takes lots of time to heal, but you
never really get over loosing someone so close.

Very sorry for your loss, Paul. Thank you for sharing the news with the group. We’re all here for you, even if we can’t always be physically present.
Sorry about your Mom, you, and everyone else involved. Basically there is nothing we can say, except to tell you we are here for you.
Paul, Sorry to hear about your Mom. Lost my dad fews years ago, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Paul ,
We have never met but i know what its like to loose a parent my dad dyed 3 years ago after a long battle with parkison desiease.I think of him often.
Paul,
Thank you for including us in this difficult time. Please be assured you are in our prayers.
I’m sure this is terribly difficult to bear, Paul, coming so soon after the holidays. But as Allen noted, there will come a time when the pain will be replaced by the warmth and comfort of remembering happier days. My best to you and yours, and most especially to your dad.

Paul
Please accept our sincere condolences on the loss of your Mother. You and your family will be in our prayers.
Paul thinking of you, Hope your doing okay. Mine passed at a young age so I never really got to know them well enough to miss them. I feel for you. and cherish the memories.
Thank you all for your kind words, those you wrote here and those sent to me privately.
I’ve shared your prayers with my dad. He was touched that so many were praying for our family.
Mom was interred yesterday evening in a columbarium at my parent’s church.
Our memorial service is Saturday, Jan 14th. Going to be a long day tomorrow.
