I just found out my mother passed away unexpectedly. Support needed in this time.

Please, if anyone has gone through the loss of a loved one and can help guide me through the necessary steps any advice through pms would be appreciated. I'm heading to PA now and will reply when I get a chance.


Take time today to tell those in your family that you love them. Too often we take these things for granted, and you never know if the next time will be your last.


Kevin

thoughts and prayers sent Kevin. Very sorry for your loss

It is easier to face the world when you know there is someone out there who loves you no matter what. When your mother dies you lose that forever. I'm sorry.

Sorry for your loss, Kevin. Right now it's a time for grieving her, and being there for the rest of the family. Those are the necessary steps of the here and now. Everything else can wait.

so sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine...

Remember that everyone grieves in their own way.
Some don't show it, some do. The best thing to keep in mind are all your fond memories, things she did to make you laugh, all those happy times. They will help make you strong, and get you through this trying time. Coming from an Irish background, when a friend or relative passed away we would have what was called a "mourning party" where everyone got to share their life experiences that they had with the deceased with others, and help to keep those memories alive.

There's nothing like a good strong shoulder to lean on.....even if it isn't yours!

T&P's for the peace and tranquility she rightly deserves.

Very sorry for your loss.

Kevin - so very sorry to hear this. Big thoughts & prayers from all of us to you and your family.

I wish I knew some magic way or words to ease your burden.

Kevin so sorry for your loss. When my Dad passed away......I honored him and the life he led by taking care of my Mom the best I could to see to her needs (not sure if your Dad is still with you) and by being strong for my family and seeing that he was laid to rest with honor and with love. I say this alot in times like this Kevin but keep the memories close to your heart....they will get you through it. Don't be afraid to laugh as folks reminisce about your Mom and the good times and do not be afraid to cry for the loss of your Mom. I am deeply sorry.

Sorry for your loss.
Be good to yourself.
T&P's.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I too lost my mother rather suddenly, a little over a year ago. I keep pictures and things she'd given me over the years around, I think of her often, and mostly I keep living life in a manner she'd be happy and proud of.

Kevin - my sympathies , remember the good times.

Heartfealt prayers from Jess, Jack and I, Kevin. Call me if you have time to talk. Be home after 6 tonight and around all day tomorrow.
Rick

T & P are sent from my family to yours. No matter how you look at it its not easy. Time heals but its tough to let time pass. When my dad passed I had some good friends step up to comfort me...it helps a lot. I stayed strong for my family but made myself sick holding it all in. Find a time and place to let it out, a good healthy release helps.

I'm sorry for your loss. Thoughts and Prayers are sent. RIP!

Kevin,

Sorry for your loss Kevin. Stay focused on the happy moments , a life well lived. Cry when it comes over you. Laugh when you remember fun things. There's a whole range of memories and emotions to let run their course.

Very sorry for your loss :(

Kevin, So sorry to hear this, you and your family are in my families Thoughts and Prayers

Hi,
after having lost my dad this early August...I can tell you that we process events as we go...meaning certain things will trigger and cause either a joyful memory or a painful or troubling one...

when I think about it, kinda sums up how life is...

try and hang in there, embrace any and all good memories and allow any feelings you have to be natural...do not try and "feel" anything...just let what is - be what is...that is part of the grieving process...

Thoughts and prayers sent...
Ernie

Kevin, my condolences, T&P, if you need anything please don't hesitate to call.

They can and will happen months, even years, afterwards.

My dad passed away in November of 1981. My daughter was born on May 17, 1990. I thought his death was behind me. A month or so after she was born, it was Father's Day. Grief over his death hit me like a brick, as it was the first time that Father's Day mattered since he passed away.

My mom lived to a ripe old age of 91. She finally passed away last January (2011). We grieved, but having her for 91 years and celebrating a birthday days before her death eased the pain. Then, in November, our church had an All Saints Day service for people who had died during the year. I gave the pastor her name to be read aloud. As they read each name, they rang the church's bell once. When they got to her name, I lost it. It was that darn bell.

Treasure these moments when they happen. Let the emotions flow. Don't fight them. It's not unmanly to cry. They live on in our hearts.

My condolences Kevin.

The grieving process is a very long and bumpy road, but it will smooth out.

Kevin, I had the same thing happen to me. Brought her to the hospital for a simple out-patient procedure and my brothers business partner called me and said she died on the table.

The only advice I have is to trust in God.

T&P sent.

Sorry for your loss. My condolences to your family.

I stopped at the trout stream I fished incessantly as a kid this morning to have a cup of coffee and clear my head. My mother was an avid birder, and one of her favorites was hummingbirds- she was always calling me after she saw one at her feeders.

In my twenty seven years of life, I've never seen a hummingbird in Pennsylvania. But when I sat down next to my favorite pool, one materialized, fed on the flowers next to me, flitted around me and took off.

I think it was her way of saying everything would be all right. Thank you all for your support.

Prayers sent for strength and peace for you and your family.

Terrible news, I am very sorry for your loss.

Thought and prayers are with you Kevin and your loved ones.

Thoughts, prayers and hope you have many visits from hummingbirds.
