Thank you so much Margaret and my heart truly goes out to you for the loss of your parents and spouse, especially for the loss of your son. When my Mamaw came from TN to attend my Moms service I refused to go. I was 18 years old, a new Mom myself and I wasn't ready to say goodbye to her, to face the loss. Everyone begged me to go, but it wasn't until my sweet little 80 year old Mamaw came to me and said she knew the pain I felt and even though I had lost my Mom, she was going to say goodbye to her child, her baby. I went to the service because I needed to keep my Mamaw strong for my Mom. I knew that as much pain as I felt, it couldn't have compared to her having to say goodbye to her child that she hadn't been able to see for years, it was then that I realized how lucky I was that she was such a huge part of my life at all.
