Very sorry to hear this Steve, My condolences to you and your family.

What a lovely lady Steve.  Thank you for sharing a little about her.  She reminds me a bunch of my grandma (also born in 1928) who was such an amazing woman.  That generation was very tough certainly due in part to the difficult times in which they were raised.  We sure have a “cushy” existence compared to those from that time period.  My grandma went home to her reward about 16 years ago and she is still missed.  I know that the loss of you mom will leave a vacancy in your life but remembering those special things about her will keep her memory alive.  

 

God bless you friend, the Stertz family is praying for you to be comforted in your time of loss.🙏🏻

Sorry for your loss Steve. The thing I miss about my mom the most is that I can't ask her questions. Just the other day we found a poem written about her when she was about to be married. We wondered who wrote it. She would have know. She died at 78, way too young. You were lucky to get so many years with your mom.

Sorry Steve to hear this. May you find peace and comfort through this hard time.

Steve, Nancy and I are so sorry to hear about your and your families loss. Just yesterday I noticed that you hadn't been on this site since Sunday and I expressed some concern to her about your well being since that was so unusual. I almost called but didn't and then decided that I was going to get Skype working again on my end thinking I would need to get a new camera that was compatible with Windows 10 to do so. Well, on a whim, I tried to find a driver to work the camera I had and sure enough, I got it going and with the new internet we now have it looks like it will be fine. I sent you a quick message there to let you know.

 

Well, about 3 hours ago I started typing when my phone rang. Steve, it was great talking and Skyping with you. You need some sleep my friend. We'll talk again soon.

Bob, great talking with you......and with Norm & Chris Sutton.  Looks like I spent the whole night talking with you guys.....thanks  

 

What a support group we have here!!!

My condolences on your loss.  While it is never easy losing a loved one know that they are always with you, for they helped shape who you are as a person.  So in that way even though they are not physically with us anymore, they continue to live on through us.

Sorry for your loss Steve and Chris!    May the memories of the good times with your mother always stay with you!

  It was good talking with you, Steve. Even if I did get my breakfast 3hrs late. I hope I brought some comfort. I lost both my parents about 17yrs back. Within 9mths of each other. Sadly I was not with them on their passing. Just to late getting there due to living 100 miles plus apart.

  It's great to see how many people have sent condolences. Just goes to show how big a family you have on here and how well thought of you are.

Steve, so sorry for your loss and our thoughts are with you. She sounded like a wonderful woman, and raised a fine man in yourself.  I imagine you both made each other proud, and you hold many happy memories of her.

[wallfish 15,935]

So sorry for your loss Steve.

Although grief can be very difficult, you will find a way through it. You already appear to be on your way by remembering all of the good things about her and thanks for sharing a little bit of that with us.

Yo Steve...  I've been away from the internet for a few days, just got back home and started checking my favorite forum, and found this thread.  I'm really sorry to hear about your mom, if I could give you a big hug right now I would.  Be strong mate, you have lots of great memories to keep with you for the rest of your life, I know you'll get through this. 

[stevasaurus 22,231]

@briankd  Thank you for your kind words and know that you and yours are in my prayers.  The Holidays can always be the hardest time of year.  God's will be done.

I know the feeling Brian. My father passed away a week before Christmas. It will be seven years next week. It gets a little easier as time passes but never totally goes away. Like a gut punch sometimes. I wish you and your family the best my friend.

Sorry for your loss Steve

Steve just seeing this post and so sorry for your loss . Didn’t know if you seen my post in the basement. Just from talking to you on Skype and in the basement I know how much she meant to you. Love and prayers for you and your family . You’re right about that generation as being the greatest. My grandma is 100yrs old and the stories she’s shared are amazing with the things they had to endure with this ever changing world. A shot of rock n rye in her honor  just wish I could be there in person to share it with you.
