Donna, I apologize for not calling you back-got home really late.

My mom passed in June 2005, and it seems like yesterday. As old as I am, and as blessed as I was to have her all these years, the pain is still unbearable. I miss her every day. There's nothing like a mom to sooth and understand. I miss her hugs the most. Sometimes I feel so alone and loney.

I hope you got the whiff of cigar smoke and a special sign from your mom to ease your sadness.
