You have written a lovely tribute to your mom. She lived a very full and interesting life. I lost my mom in 1990 and still miss her so much, wishing often that she could see her sweet grea grandchildren. But our moms have left a wonderful legacy of love and life's lessons that we will cheish and pass on. My mother in law ended her life in a nursing home, slipping into dimentia. It was vey had to see her slip way in such a manner. Thank you for letting us know; I think of you often. annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668006270534204954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-516791471002517052015-03-03T22:23:56.289+00:002015-03-03T22:23:56.289+00:00Rose,

Missing them never stops, but the above post about your mother is one that I shall be happy to have shared and thank you for setting down her life story. Very interesting and moving and just the right touch.. You also will be the outcome of all that mother and father's love and that is passed on to your own children I am sure. She seemed like quite a woman, a one off as they say* I hope your grief eases as the days pass, but thank you for sharing a wonderful protrait of an amazing woman*<br />janzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11061408016373122220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-11772328885411633402015-03-03T09:51:26.519+00:002015-03-03T09:51:26.519+00:00What a remarkable woman!

Being familiar with her recent health problems I know it was a difficult time for you, however I was not expecting this news any time soon. <br /><br />What an amazing and beautiful post you have written here in her memory. It's wonderful that you know so much history of her life and that you have those fabulous photos. I love the one of her serving at the Co-Op, and with your cute curly-haired brother. That was so interesting learning of her long service in the Police.<br /><br />My mum (who died at 91) was also a twin to her brother, and there were a set of younger twin sisters as well as an older sister. <br /><br />Losing our parents is always so sad, but thankfully we had them a long time and they were wonderful people. I love to think of your mum still singing with a choir - she's probably teaching them some new songs!<br /><br />I'm thinking of you dear friend - just wish I was there to hug you. Be strong and always remember that you were a good daughter.<br /><br />Much love, Mary oxMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-6654722269792543742015-03-03T02:12:36.416+00:002015-03-03T02:12:36.416+00:00Oh Rose, what a very sweet and special tribute you...Oh Rose, what a very sweet and special tribute you've written to your mom. I know you went through a difficult time over the past few years, and I'm so glad to read that she had become loving again near the end and that you had made your peace. That would make everything much easier to live with in the coming years, I'm sure.<br /><br />I'm sure you could have written much, much more about your mom, but I can see what an interesting and accomplished person she was! I loved seeing the old pictures (something I always enjoy these days), and her time in service reminded me of the servants at Downton Abbey. What really impresses me is that she was the first woman constable in Staffordshire; I loved seeing her truncheon and medals on display! :) And how amazing, too, that she had such a good singing voice. She was truly blessed with many abilities, including the ability to work hard and go after what she wanted in life. I really loved reading about her and all of your family, Rose!<br /><br />Please forgive my absence of visits lately; I do hope we can get back in touch again and I really hope you'll return to blogging. Now, I will finally close by saying I'm so sorry for your loss, Rose, and will be thinking of you in the days to come. Please take care of yourself.<br /><br />Warm hugs,<br /><br />Denise at Forest ManorDenisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235440820949449634noreply@blogger.com
