My mom passed away early this morning. I got the call from my dad around 4:30 am.
We have known for the last 10 days that the end was near. I haven’t written about it because this time felt intensely private and I wanted to hold it close, to be quiet and contemplative, to honor this transition.
My heart is broken. I can’t imagine a life without my mom. Yet I know she’s free now and for that I am profoundly grateful. She seemed peaceful the last few days, with no pain. She died in her sleep.
She leaves behind my father, three living children, eleven grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren. She is now with my brother and all those loved ones who have already made their transition. She and my father were married for 67 years.
She was the best mom. I adored her.
I’ll write more about her later. For now, I’m going to take a few days off.
Thank you for your love and support,
Claudia, I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s never easy losing a parent. Sending prayers your way.
Claudia, I am so sorry. It is always hard losing someone dear to us even tho we know it is for the best. Your mother is at peace now.
I am sending you good thoughts . Take care. You have my deepest sympathy. pam
ps You sure do look like your mother.
Claudia,
I am wrapping you in a hug. I am praying for peace for you and your family.
Love,
Deb Price

Oh Claudia so sorry….what a beautiful picture of her.
I’m sorry. I will say a prayer for you and your family.
My prayers are with you; losing your mother is like losing a part of yourself. She will always be with you in spirit.
Dear Claudia – my thoughts are with you at this sorrowful time. It’s always so hard to lose a parent, and there was never anyone quite as special to us as our mother. The sadness never leaves us, mine has been gone11 years now, and never a day goes by that I don’t think of her and miss her. I say goodnight to her photo every night – and next to it stands the little Gladys figurine you so kindly shared with me. Your mom was so beautiful – and I see you in that lovely photo.
You and your family will be in my prayers – stay strong dear one.
Love, Mary
Claudia,
I am so sorry to hear this. What a beautiful picture of your mom. Take the time you need and know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Claudia,
I am so sorry for your loss. My mother died 14 years ago and I miss her every day. I love the picture of your mother. I have a similar one. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Carol
Claudia, I am so sorry for your loss. Take care.
So sorry for your sad heart. You were so blessed to have such a good Mom. Praying for your peace and comfort.
I’m sending a hug your way, Claudia. I know your mom was having a difficult time and trust she is now at peace.
Fondly,
Karen
My dear sweet Claudia, I am so sorry. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Hugs, Rachel
My condolences, Claudia. Prayers for you and your family as you navigate through this time. No matter how much we know that our loved one is now at peace, it is still so hard. ((((hugs))))
Hugs to you Claudia. May she rest in peace.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I am so very sorry for your loss. ((hugs)).
I’m so sorry for your loss, Claudia. I know you take comfort in the fact that she’s at peace now, as I do with my dad who passed away last September. There will never be another mom for you or dad for me. That’s hard to come to terms with as we age, the inevitable loss of our parents. My deepest sympathy for you and your family. Hugs and love to you.
Claudia
I am so sorry for your loss. We never stop needing our mom.
I will pray for you and your family.
There are no magical words to make this time easier for you Claudia but I’m sure you can see and feel that you are being thought of and cared about in our messages to you. Take good care of yourself as you remember your sweet mom. Thinking about you and your family as you journey through the grief.
Claudia, My deepest sympathy to you & your family. May God bless all of you.
So sorry for your loss. It shows in your post that she was a wonderful person and much-loved.
Claudia,
I’m sorry to hear the news of your Mother’s passing. For her, there is no more pain and suffering only the joy of being reunited with her son and all the other loved ones who went before her. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Don at this time.
Sincerely,
Vanessa

Uma bela foto. Ela era muito linda. Ao ler seu post lágrimas me vieram aos olhos pois me lembrei de minha mãe que se foi em 1997. Eu tinha apenas 30 anos. Pense que você é abençoada por ter convivido por tanto tempo com ela. Jesus te de forças. xx.
I’m so sorry, Claudia. May your heart be filled with loving memories as you mourn the loss of your beloved mother.

Claudia, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom. May God comfort you as only He can. You are in my prayers.
My condolences to you sweet Claudia. May you feel comfort and peace, my prayers will be with you and your family.
The mother memories that are closest to my heart are the small gentle ones that I have carried over from the days of my childhood. They are not profound, but they have stayed with me through life, and when I am very old, they will still be near.
by Margaret Sanger
Your mom is finally at rest. Free of the pain and stress of illness. But, you and your family are left with the loss and sadness. Sending prayers for comfort to you and yours. You look so much like your mom, Claudia. She will be with you anytime you need her. Just talk to her and I believe she will hear you.
Sending hugs and prayers to you at this time.
Claudia – We are never prepared for this, and even more time with them would still not be enough time. My prayers and deepest sympathy and thoughts I send to you and your family. What a blessing your mother was to a lot of people, and such a beautiful person. Please take care of yourself at this time – we all care so much for you.
I’m so sorry Claudia. That is a beautiful portrait of your mother. You look so much like her.
Claudia I am so sorry for your loss. I wish you peace and solace in this time. Sending prayers and hugs.
Claudia, I am so sorry for your loss. Please know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Claudia, there are no words to describe what you are going through. Time will help you and your family and remembering all the happy moments with your mamma.
Oh Claudia…my heart is breaking for you. I am so sorry for your loss. Take care…sending prayers and hugs to your family.
Our mothers are special people. We fought with them, but loved them. We learned from them, and loved them. We had laughs and fun, but above all else we loved them. I am sorry your mom has gone onto the Lord. Her memory will always be alive in your heart.
Claudia, My heart aches for you dear one. I lost my mother & father just 2 years ago. It is a feeling like no other to lose our parents. Rejoice in the memories of happy times, grieve for the moment. Your wonderful mother is gone but not forgotten. Sending you peaceful thoughts and wishing you and your family time to heal. With heartfelt sympathy and love.
Claudia I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom. I know this is a difficult time for you and your family. You are all in my prayers. Big Hugs, Linda
Peace and blessings to you and your family. Praying for comfort for you all. So sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry to read about the loss of your Mother. I will be praying for you and your family.
Big hug, Claudia. I remember how shell-shocked I felt when my mother died, seventeen years ago, even though we knew it was coming. You must be feeling that way now. It gets easier with time. I am so sorry for your loss. That photograph is lovely. It’s like looking at you in vintage clothing and hairstyle. Same smile. Same eyes. Same sweetness. I have no doubt that your mother looks just like that in the hereafter. Beautiful, happy, vibrant, and free of the tired shell she was living in. Talk to her; she is watching over you. Be very still, open your mind, and look for little signs and messages. She will be fine, and so will you. With love, Nancy
I am so sorry, Claudia. Thoughts and prayers for peace and comfort to you and your family.
Dear Claudia, My thoughts & prayers & love go out to you & your family at this time of great loss. Peace be with you.
Love, Linda
Upon waking this morning, my first thoughts were recalling that it was 5 years ago today I received the call that my dad, who suffered from Alzheimer’s, had died. For me, there was such conflicting feelings. Of course there was the sorrow that comes with losing a parent but also a degree of relief in believing that he was finally free of the awful disease that robbed him of really living the last years of his life. It is so excruciatingly painful to watch someone you love shrivel up and become an empty shell of the person you once knew. My heart goes out to you and I extend my deepest sympathies to you and your family.
Sorry to hear about your mom. There’s just no way to prepare for their leaving this earth. What an amazing relationship your mom and dad had!
My heart breaks for you, Claudia. I am so very sorry for this terrible loss. I can’t imagine what you’re feeling and send love and prayers your way. xxxx
I’m so sorry for the loss of your beautiful mother. Will be keeping you in my heart and prayers. Peace be with you. {{hugs}}
I’m so sorry for your loss. Sending peace and comfort to you and your family.
Wonderful words. I am so sorry for your loss. My Mom passed away a year ago and I find I am remembering her as a young mom raising her family quite frequently, with love.
Hugs and love to you and your family Claudia.
Joy
So very sorry, Claudia. And thank you for including the photo of your mother. Her beautiful spirit is very evident, and lives on in you. Take care.
I am so very sorry for your loss, Claudia. You need some time away to remember and cherish all the times you had together. She will live on through all the values she instilled within you and your siblings. You have said before that for the past while you knew you had already lost your mom, but the finality of this day is brutal. Since I lost my mom almost 8 years ago, I am always watching for “signs” or messages from her. I see them everywhere. I have always heard that cardinals are those who have passed coming to visit. So I talk to the cardinals at my feeders every single day. We find comfort in the little things that remind us, and thus keep those we love in our lives forever.
You look so much like your mom! I think that from reading all of these comments you do know that there are so many who care for you, and every one of us is wishing you, Don, and your family peace and comfort in the days ahead.
My family and I send sincere condolences on the loss of your Mother. You look so much like her and so she will always be alive in you. Forever Loved.
My heartfelt sympathy to you, and your family.
Your mother will always be with you, Claudia. Mine has been gone for almost twenty years, but I think of her — and my father — every day. People who have shaped us are always a part of us, aren’t they. Your resemblance to your mother is so strong that she’ll always be in your mirror. My thoughts are with you.
Sorry about your loss. May your fondest memories be a comfort to you.
Claudia, So sorry for your sad heart at the passing of your Mom. How wonderful to have had someone you adored for all those years–what a blessing. Sonja
Claudia, my deepest, most sincere condolences. Cherish your memories and she’ll never be far from you.
My sincerest sympathy for you and your family. Take care.
Claudia, please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your mother. I hope that you and your family will be surrounded with love, comfort, and peace.
I´m very sorry for your loss.
*hugs* There are no words, even when you know the end is coming. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Oh Claudia. My heart is with you and Meredith and the entire family. I had read on Mere’s post yesterday that the end was near. I’ll be praying for you, that you will feel peace.
Blessings,
Betsy
Been there.
Heartbroken only partly describes it.
You have my sympathy and empathy.
I have physical pain, reminiscent of my own loss, for you.
Take time. Be good to yourself.
Claudia, I am so sorry for your loss.
Claudia- I am truly sorry for your temporary separation. You will meet again. Take any time you need to reflect and adjust. We will be here thinking of you.
hugs,
suezk
I’m so very sorry for you and for your poor father who will be suffering so at losing his lifetime partner. She was a very beautiful woman and I like to think those who suffered so much at the end are in the next place singing and dancing, free of pain and confusion. Have a good, long sleep and come back to us when you are ready.
Claudia, I am so sorry, You have my deepest sympathy.
Claudia,
I am so sorry for you loss. You and your family will be in my prayers. I lost my mother when I was very young, 16. I still miss her every day.
Blessings
Linda
So sad to read about your mother. Deepest sympathy, Bess
She is free now. That’s all I can say. I hope you and your family will be able to be together to share happy memories and lots of joy that she was and is a part of you always.
So sad. Your mother was beautiful. You look a lot like her. How is your father doing. So many years together. Good to take time. Xo
I’m very sorry for your loss. My own mom died suddenly 32 years ago yesterday. I still miss her and wonder about questions I never got to ask. You look a lot like your mom in the beautiful photo above. I hope you will feel her presence to comfort you very soon.
Oh, Claudia, i am so sorry to hear of your loss. It is never easy to lose a loved one even if the end is expected and in some cases even welcomed when we know that they are suffering. i have lost both parents, one very suddenly and one after being in ill health for many years; neither of these losses was easy.
Your mom was very beautiful; i think you look like her.
i will be praying for your comfort.
Bless you ,Claudia.
Dottie
Dear Claudia, you now have another angel looking out for you! Moms are special people, aren’t you glad you had her for so long! I had mine for 90 years! I also think you have a remarkable resemblence to your Mom – you will see her every time you look in the mirror! love, hugs, prayers & sincere sympathy.
Oh Claudia, I’m so very very sorry. For you and your entire family – and very especially your dear Dad. I can’t believe you even have the wherewithal to post today. I’ve lost both parents but still feel the hurt of their losses and think of them multiple times every day. I hope the following will help you in some small way to get through the difficult days ahead. Remember the good times – there were many of them, I’m sure. Remember that your mom is now totally-free of the pain and limitations her age and condition placed on her. Remember that she’s with your brother and everyone else she loved who went on before her. Remember she’s finally earned the reward she lived her life to get. Remember that she will also be with you and watching over you. Always.
I lost my mother to Alzheimer’s disease, too. It is bittersweet. While your mom has been released from her pain and confusion, you lost a mother and that is so hard to accept.
You will always miss her, but you will always have wonderful memories and will carry her in your heart.
Blessings

Claudia, your mother was a beautiful lady. You look so much like her. My thoughts are with you.

(((((((((Claudia & family))))))))
Claudia,
My thoughts are with you. I lost my mom, dad, mother-in-law and a sister- in- law in 2010 so I understand your pain. I, like you, also felt relief that they were no longer in pain. Remember the good times……..
Claudia, I am sorry about the loss of your mother. Hugs to both you and Don.
Father,
We come before your throne with broken hearts. Claudia, Meredith, their sister, children, nieces,nephews and father are hurting.

So sorry for your loss Claudia, I lost my mom 17 years ago and at the time I was not sure how I would even breath without her. I can tell you we are stronger than we give ourselves credit for at times like this. Focus on the time you had with her, not that she is gone, it may help. We are blessed to have had them. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.
I am so sorry for your loss Claudia. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Oh Claudia, what sad news. I am so sorry for your loss. We will be here whenever you are ready… Sending love to you and your family x
Dear Claudia and Don my deepest sympathy on the passing of you beloved mother. Remember and cherish all the memories that you and your family that you made in her life time.

I’m so sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. Her picture is beautiful and you look so much like her. I pray you will find comfort and peace as the days go by. It is so difficult to say goodbye to a loved one but I found comfort in knowing that my son no longer suffered any pain or distress and I’m sure you feel the same even though your personal loss is so painful. My prayers and thoughts are with you, Blessings, Ann
I am behind on my blog reading, and just learning about your sad loss. I am so very sorry. Take care of yourself and let yourself be taken care of during these emotionally draining days to come.
Dear Claudia,
I have been sitting in hospice for my own mother since the 21st and missed the post of your mom’s passing. The pictures you posted of her are lovely- I see such a resemblence to you. My heart goes out to you and yours during this sad time of passing and adjustment.
Claudia,
So very sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. She was beautiful. I definitely see a resemblance. May you be comforted by warm and loving memories. Sending you hugs.
