Legacy

My mother didn't really get the chance to create a legacy for herself because she died so young. I want to do something more than just getting a nice tombstone for her, I want to do something that is going to actually create a lasting memory of her for the rest of the world. I'm already planning to create a web page so people can donate in memory of her. Does anybody have any other ideas? I want the whole world to know who she was.

Hi Julie,

My mom, too, went before her time. I lost her to cancer this past December. My mom loved nature and children, so my dad and I had a tree planted in her memory at one of her favorite parks, right next to the playground, so families can enjoy the shade that it provides.

The web page is a really nice idea. What did your mom like? Value? What helped me was to think about the things that mattered most to my mom and to go from there.

Hitting me

My daughter did MAID last Tuesday and I've been holding up okay.But just now the Christmas convoy (trucks all lit up that do an organized drive through our small town) went by and suddenly I just started crying, thinking how my girl won't be around to have these small moments. And not that she would have - she wasn't a huge Christmas or celebration person. So I don't know why I'm sitting here crying about it.Oh this is going to hurt a lot :-(See More
