About this Blog

All to often we are in a rush running to our jobs and other pertinent tasks; never taking the time to reflect on one's life and learn from the past. A few days ago

was October 27th; a day that I will never forget as it was the day my mother passed away. As I think about this date,  I cannot believe this happened 24 years ago. When my mother passed away I was starting my 2nd year in college. 24 years later, I  have been married for 19 years to a loving wife and have 2 wonderful kids.

From time to time I talk to them about my mother and what she meant to me. However, I get the sense that they do not fully comprehend how this person who is my mother is no longer here. After all, they still find the concept of their grandmother being my wife's mother hard to grasp.  I also talk  about my mother  to my wife and other people. However, it seems there should be a repository of information about my mother so I can help them better understand who she was. Of course this repository does not exist as my mother lived long before the modern internet was used. With this in mind, I dedicate this blog to my mother, my children, wife, family, and, friends. May it serve as a source of inspiration to all.
