Life and Death

You always revere life more, when death is close to you.

Benita's father passed away 2 days ago after a long battle with illness. 

I think that she has surprised herself on how strong she has become in order to support her mother.

Benita would have been characterized as the possible hysterical one, but like when my mother passed away, she is a rock.

She is in NJ right now and I miss my wife very much.

I will need to be there for her over the next several months.  Although she is being strong now, I know that the waves of grief will come and go at unexpected times.

Now I just need to find the strength to visit my mother's grave.....it's over do.

It's almost been a year since my mother has passed away and yet I tear up just thinking about visiting her.  Wow.
