Got the call that Mom passed away before we even left town...I'll share more later...life is a bit chaotic and I still am going to RD to say goodbye to the guys as it's my only chance...
 
I'm sorry to hear that, @BethAnne. Definitely good that you're still going to say goodbye. I was away from the nursing home having lunch when Dad died, but headed right back when my brother called me. Condolences to your family and a big hug for you.

Oh no, we'll be here for you as much as possible online. Take care of yourself. I hope you and your sister can support each other through this too.
 
Thanks everyone. Still some family members I haven't been able to reach. Sis is leaving all the details/funeral home/hospital room emptying/obit/phoning/etc to me - which is good in a way as then we're not duplicating efforts...paper is not done and I'm not even going to try and get it done tonight - I have been given some extra time. @Mendalla I said goodbye to my press guy who is being downsized out and is moving to Duncan and will be working in Ladysmith - gave him a no-bake saskatoon pie :)
 
It's funny the things that go through your mind when someone passes away...what's hitting me the hardest right now is that mom never got to see the crochet buffet surprise that my niece and I have been planning for her as it's still not done :(
 
This is a tough time BA. Losing your mother is huge. Mine died 20+ years ago. There are still times where I wish I could tell her things, or ask her questions. There are still pieces of music that can slay me. Grief is like that. It does get better. It's always there too. Maybe the crochet gift can be something you do in her memory. As you are ready.

I still plan to do it as it was also for niece's enjoyment and excitement...just won't be exactly the same as our reason for starting it.

When I took the draft obit over to my sister's for her to look at it, it was funny as niece sidled up to me and said, "Soooooooooooooo...(long pause)...did you hear what happened today?"...she was relieved to know that I did know. :)
 
Sorry about your mother's passing BA. May you treasure some happy memories. Prayers for you and your family.
It will seem topsy turvy for awhile I am sure as you notify family and make arrangements.
Remember to rest yourself too.
