    I'm with you brother! It's been five years since my mum departed hence, and April 15th was her birthday. You never stop missing your No. 1 lady...!

    There are good mothers and there are bad mothers. But we all only get one, and we never get over that one.

    That is a very nice tribute, and I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. I, too, found myself getting a bit misty-eyed. I'm sure your mother was a wonderful woman.

    That says it for me too. Thanks for sharing a little bit of your mom with us.

    She must have been a wonderful woman to raise a son like you. Great tribute.

    That is beautiful man, your mother was a lovely lady, and I am certain she was proud of you, even more now with the moving tribute you made for her, dang, I had tears in my eyes when I finished it......thank you so much for posting.
