Happy Mother’s Day! And for you out there who have your moms still alive and healthy, count that as one of your grandest blessings. My mother passed away in 1996, and that’s 25 years ago this year. But as many of you will discover (or have discovered), even a quarter of a century will not erase the pain and empty void that comes from no longer having your mom in your life. A week doesn’t pass that some situation or instance will have me thinking of her, wondering how she would react, or handle some incident – and have me wistfully wishing she was still around.
