Hey All,
I'm posting this here instead of in the Candles for Prayer area because a lot of you have met and know my Mom. It's with a heavy heart that I have to say that Mom passed away earlier this evening. She went quickly and with no pain, so our prayers were answered on that account.
Thanks to all of you for your support and well wishes on Saturday night! It truly meant a lot to me and John.
She is in our prayers. Anything Jenn and I can do for you guys let us know. I know we're on the other end of the world but just know we are here for you. :)
May your mother rest in peace. :'(
Sorry to here about your loss, Always remember that she will be another Angel watching over you. :)

Loss of Mother
Now that I am gone,
remember me with smiles and laughter.
And if you need to cry,
cry with your brother or sister
who walks in grief beside you.
And when you need me,
put your arms around anyone
and give to them what you need to give to me.
There are so many who need so much.
I want to leave you something --
something much better than words or sounds.
Look for me in the people I've known
or helped in some special way.
Let me live in your heart
as well as in your mind.
You can love me most
by letting your love reach out to our loved ones,
by embracing them and living in their love.
Love does not die, people do.
So, when all that's left of me is love,
give me away as best you can.

Brandi, I am so sorry to hear this. Losing someone we love is never easy.
I hope that you and John can take some comfort from the fact that your mother is no longer in pain.
You know that I am always here for you if you need me and your family is certainly in my daily prayers.
Blessings to you.
I'm truly sorry to hear of your mother's passing.
Hugs, thoughts and prayers, for you both!
I want to thank everyone for your kind words. They mean more than I am able to communicate and are helping us through this. We're bumping along, but for the most part we're doing okay. It's a blessing to us that her pain was under control and that she didn't suffer in the end. She just slipped away quickly and quietly and with a lot of dignity.
Noble Dreg - that poem is amazing....thank you for posting it.
Thanks again to all of you. You are all truly part of our family.
Very sad news. Having lost a parent several years ago, I never feel like the phrases "Sorry for your loss" or "my condolences" quite fit.
Lord & Lady Figaro,
May your memories of her always bring a smile to your lips and warmth to your heart.

Thank you all, truly. For real guys, it means a lot to us. Brandi's mom always enjoyed fest with us at least once a year. I was hoping she would have been able to join us for one more. But now her spirit will instead.
My most sincere condolences upon the death of your beloved mother. Her loss diminishes us all.

I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mom was such a sweet lady, Brandi. She will be missed.
You have my condolences. Loosing a parent or parent figure isn't easy. You have much love from me.
So very sorry Lady Fig. many hugs and thoughts and prayers
