I'll be away for a while.

Suddenly and unexpectedly, my mother passed away this morning.  She went quickly, and I'm grateful that she wasn't in pain and didn't suffer.  I'll be away for a while so that I can take care of matters here.  Thanks to all for your prayers for us.

Daisy, I am so very sorry about your mom. I'm glad she went without suffering and hope that knowledge brings you some comfort.

There's a part of the Divine Liturgy of the Orthodox Church that I will always love: "We ask for a Christian end to our lives -- painless, blameless, and peaceful."

Daisy said...

Thank you all so much for your kind and caring words. I greatly appreciate your prayers and condolences. I am grateful to know that so many are lifting us up.

Because of the blizzard that is going to be hitting us tonight, Mom's funeral has been set for Saturday in hopes that travel conditions will have improved by then.

I will probably be back to blogging next week.
