mortadella5553's blog post - Today is the first anniversary

Mom died one year ago today. Not a day to be sad for me, a day to gladly remember Mom's life. She was strong and confident and a good Mom. Taught my sister and I right from wrong and built a strong work ethic into us. Dad was always there contributing to our development also. Mom was an Army Nurse in WWII, dad was a Bowsons Mate in the Navy. They are buried at Golden Gate National Cemetary. (it took an intervention by our congressman to get them into GG cemtary- Thank You Pete Stark).

Thanks Mom and Dad for all you did for me. Thanks also for you service to this great country. Thanks to all those still serving so we may have such a great country.

I will have a drink for you tonight Mom- a Martini with 2 olives. May God bless.

Sounds like a wonderful woman. I am sorry for your loss and glad her memories live on.

All I can say is not "I'm sorry" to you, but "Thank you" to your mom for raising a very thoughtful and decent man.

Hope you will be well today, bud.
