My Mother went to be with the Lord several years ago at age 86. Her family was everything to her. Her love for her parents and brothers and sisters was only equaled or maybe surpassed by her love for her husband, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Every time I see the Marines motto, “Semper Fidelis” it makes me think of Mother. Always faithful. The best person I ever knew.
Why take it away at all, especially right then. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
