Rest in peace, my dearest Mom. We gave you a good funeral service send-off today. We love you and always will. With all our hearts: your daughter Carolyn, Ron, and our Kitties, who are your cat-Grandchilden.

Thanks for your prayers. My Mom got through obstacles and well enough to go home again and again. We learned recently, the ups & downs were from mini-strokes. A third made the throat mechanics of swallowing food dangerous rather than nourishing. She ascended to Heaven on January 3 when her soul chose to. Rest in peace, my beautiful Mom! We cherish many loving visits.

My Mom ascended into her next chapter today. I am so well-prepared by her that I am okay and my Dad is all right too. Thank you to all friends who cared, prayed, and shared all the support in their own styles. It has worked because we are all right on this day! Here is to you, my beautiful, wonderful Mom. Love: Carolyn, Ron, and your Grandchildren Cats.

I don't use PM: just profile comments or e-mail are great. :)

Please pray for my Mom. She came through pneumonia in June with our prayers. We discovered a mini-stroke was the cause of mobility difficulty, which extended to swallowing food. They have finally offered her an IV for fluids of necessity and we pray they did not wait too late, after letting her eat what she could for 2 months!

Respectful reminder that I do not use private messages. E-mail or comment box, please.

My pleasure to learn about great art and artists all around the world. I have fun unearthing these treasures at charity shops and it helps a good cause. A scavenger hunt and the elation of a stellar deal are part of what we love about real books.

Reading Canadian stories I did not know and hearing about Canadian places they entailed, is a unique kind of history. We are lucky that there are collectors of personal, small, individual stories or occurrences.

I started this poetry and art book with my Mom at the hospital. She enjoyed it very much.

I avoid reviews until I have read a book myself but on this occasion of so many people disliking a book, reviewers often help me like it rather than hinder enjoyment of it. I know the ending is supposed to lack conclusiveness, thus there will be no disappointment. I will either admire the originality of the conclusion or agree that something was lacking.
