Sad Morning

Heading back to Michigan, my mother passed away
this morning in her sleep. It was a long battle with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
COPD.




Its really hard to describe in mere words the affect my mother has had on my life, maybe another day in different post, but she was and always be my best friend and the greatest mother to me.

She died fullfilled in life without any regret;

nothing more to see
nothing more to try
nothing more to cook
nothing more to bake
nothing more to eat
no where else to travel

she raised two daughters, two sons, and was married 35 years,
throw in a few grandkids, and a couple more great grandkids, and life gave her everything she wanted.

    Dear Chris,

    Morgan and I were saddened to hear of the loss of your mother. I'm sure she took special delight in the close relationship you two shared. You are certainly a son any mother would be proud to call her own. I'm sure she will be following your progress with delight and will be the angel on your shoulder in days and years to come.

    Most sincerely, Ann and Morgan Harris
