Probably a mom joke for most of you, but mine passed away a few hours ago.

Been there and it's a hard thing to bear. Keep her close and alive in your heart and in your memories.

Sorry for you loss man. Mine passed away about 7 years ago and it still hurts. She was 63, i went to work one morning, people were trying to call my cell but as usual i ignored the calls, then an old friend of mine stopped by the job and delivered the bad news.

I know moms can be a PIA sometimes but they mean well. I miss my mom.

I'm sorry to hear that. You have my condolences.
It's times like this that make arguing on the internet so trivial.
:( I should call my mom more, which I rarely do.

Wow, your mom was seven days younger than mine. Sorry for your loss. I could not imagine losing my mother.

Cherish her because when she's gone there is no going back. :(

I'm still lucky enough to have both of my parents, but they're getting up there in age and I know the day will come eventually, and it won't be easy when it does. I can only imagine how hard it is... very sorry to hear of your and your family's loss.

Not much more to say, everyone loved her wherever she was. When I lived at home, people would come by to see me, but if I wasn't home they'd just chat with her until I arrived.

Regretfully, she did not get a chance to see her grandchild.

However, at least she knew that one was on the way.

Sorry for your loss. Having said that, I've deleted a couple of other platitudes. Not because they weren't honest, caring or thoughtful. Your mother is a year older than mine and I fear the moment you're experiencing right now. My thoughts are with you and your family.

May she rest in peace and may your pain find some relief when remembering the memories you've shared.
