REST IN PEACE MOTHER

Sadly on July 29, 2008 I lost my mother Theresa Cato. My mom suffered from COPD and was diagnosed the first week in June with non-Hodgkins lymphoma. Her departure came much sooner than we had expected or wanted but I was blessed to have been with her in her last hours at home. It was comforting to be with her till the end and I think it brought peace to me to have her there surrounded by her family. Mother was cremated according to her wishes and there was a beautiful memorial service for her with members of our family participating to make it very personal. Family was what she was about and she loved a large gathering of children, grandchidren and great grands. We were all there to say goodbye and remember the woman we all loved. She would have loved that. Rest in peace mom.

I am glad I got to see her one last time the summer before she passed.
