Irving Berlin
On Monday, my ex-husbands mother passed away quietly with most of her family close by. She led a full life and was such a strong woman. She very much enjoyed taking a long walk early in the morning every day, and was a regular participant in the Walk for Diabetes.
I had a deep admiration for her and we continued to be friends after Jack and I divorced. She will be missed by her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. I feel very blessed to have known "Dollie."
Here she is with my mother during a birthday celebration. Their birthdays were one day apart so they always got to share a cake.
I'm very sorry for your loss. Sending hugs your way and prayers to Him.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you have lost a loved one. I am guessing the lady on the right is your mom. Am I right?
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog; will be back for another visit.
Always blessed,

I'm sorry for your loss, she sounds like a wonderful lady.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear of your loss, and respect the relationship you were able to maintain with her. While having a very good relationship with my own mom, I was also very close to my mother-in-law. She died while I was pregnant with my first child, and we still miss her very much and talk about her frequently. Prayers for you and all in your family.
ReplyDeletei am sorry for your loss ...... it is good that you and your former mother-in-law remained friends after your divorce ... my ex's mother and i were not friends before, but we are now ... i think we appreciate each others' strengths, instead of seeing only weaknesses and shortcomings.
ReplyDeleteRuthie, I am so sorry for your loss. Please give the kids an extra hug from me, and have them give you one from me, as well. I wish I could deliver that hug in person. Eve
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your loss Ruthie, it's great that you had such a great relationship with your mother-in-law (ex or not!)
