First, thank you all for the comments. My mother's funeral would have been different if I could have pulled it together to stand up and speak. Words cannot express the pain and void I have since the mother that raised me is suddenly GONE. So much of the 37 years we spent together I spend trying to make her proud. Dad, you too. But I do know that if any of us are to be in a better place, it's my mother as she had such a tender and soft heart and my aching soul will miss her each day for the rest of my life. You told me before you left that you DID know how very much I loved you. You were a wonderful Mom...and I am proud of you. Good-bye, Mom. Now rest with God. your baby son, Jackson.
