One of Her Bible’s I have written, in the past, about how my Mother passed out her treasures, while her children could make use of them. The pieces that I own, which were my Mothers are honestly too treasured by me to be used, things like serving dishes and a cream and sugar set, which…
Happy Birthday Mother My plans for March 9th are to visit an orchid show, my Mother’s favorite flowers, which I love; and yes, eat fried chicken, that I do not so much care about, but that she loved. One of the things I decided a few years ago, was that instead of spending my Mother’s…

La Sacra Bibbia Ossia L’ANTICO E IL NUOVO TESTAMENTO My Mother loved finding new churches to visit and she loved learning languages! Going through the few books of hers, that I own, I opened this Bible, initially assuming it was in Spanish, until I took another look. This is a Bible she was given during…
Family on the Day of Mother’s Memorial Service I believe most of these pictures were taken by Kate. This was the day of my Mother’s memorial service, January 6, 2013. The pictures have sat in a photo file for years, literally, as this is not a day I wanted to revisit; however, they are…
