MEMORIAL SITE
I am maintaining this site in memory
of my father and mother, both of whom passed away very suddenly in 2009. My
mother was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor will I was in the hospital in
December of 2008 with open heart surgery. During her 3 surgeries to remove the
tumor and affected tissue, my Dad never left her side at the hospital. We don't
know if this contributed to his illness but he was diagnosed with Leukemia
around Easter of 2009 and he passed away very suddenly over Memorial Day
weekend. My mother was unable to care for herself so me and my wife, my older
brother and his wife, and their daughter, and my aunt took turns staying with my
mother over those lonely months until she passed in September of 2009. I will
cherish the time we spent with her in those final days, as well as all of the
vacations and trips that the 4 of us took together.
Not only did I lose my Dad,
I lost my best friend. I know that both of them are in a better place, feeling
no pain, and rejoicing on the streets of gold. I love you Mom and Dad! We miss you!
