My Beautiful Mother

This beautiful lady is my mother. She was

born May 9, 1909 and would have been 101

on Mother's Day this year. This picture was

when she was a senior in high school.

I have two brothers who are in their 70s...

I came along when mother was almost 40.

She died when I was almost 40. Since then

I have learned that there were many, many

things I should have asked her. There are

many times I wish I could just see if she had

the same feelings about getting older. I miss

her in ways I never expected I would. And

of course I still love her. Happy
Birthday and Happy Mother's Day, Mom.
