Unhappy that's a sad thing

Fred... It's real tough loosing your Mom because she was always the one you ran too as a little tyke to give you comfort and to wipe away your tears.

All i can tell you is....Right now your filled with grief
and sadness and your feeling rather over whelmed by it all.... but later on, many more fond memories will drift back up and surface into your conscience mind that will give you a reason to smile and experience comfort and Joy.

My mother's name was also Gertrude...and the other day i was holding a small pottery pitcher she had crafted out of clay....many many years ago but i could still feel her fingers in the molding of it...because it wasn't a perfectly smooth surface like store bought china has... and that gave me a connection back to her.....like a blind man reading brail or a face with his hands.... ya know...

So you need to find that special something of hers that will give you that kind of connected feeling.

You'll carry her love for you in your heart always...
and that my friend will help heal you over time.

My condolences Fred.
