My mom died this morning, shortly before 9:00.
She is one of the twins in this picture with her mother and sisters.
It hasn't even been a year since my dad died.
Still trying to wrap my head around the idea that I am now an orphan.
Certianly, I was blessed with parents who were exceptionally kind and caring people.

Praying for you and your family. Even an expected loss is never easy.
Judy.
Judy, Judy.
My heart is hurting.
Too much too soon, I wish I could come and bring you a rhubarb crisp or a hug or both.

Judy, I am a regular reader of your blog and have come to know your family thru reading your posts. I am so sorry for your loss. You were blessed with wonderful parents and you have such a beautiful family. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God hold you all especially close. Mary
Dear, dear Judy, I am so sorry. My heart aches for you. I've lost my mom and I'm in total denial about ever losing my dad. Yes, you've been blessed with wonderful parents and that makes the hurt so poignant.
You are deep in my thoughts and prayers today.
Hugs,
Karen
Oh Judy, I'm so sorry to read this sad news.
You and your family are in my prayers as always, but especially while you go though this loss.
Wishing comfort to you and your family. I'm glad you can remember both of your parents as kind and caring people.
Again, I am so sorry. And please know you are not an orphan, dear Judy. Your Heavenly Father is closer to you at this moment than He's ever been before. And your parents are more alive, albeit in Heaven, than they ever were while living upon this Earth. You are so loved by them all and by your family and your friends...like me. Comforting hugs, Debra
You lost them in pretty quick succession. As well as you're taking it, do be kind to yourself for quite a while.
Can you believe the captcha for this post? It's blech.
I should have said the captcha for my comment.
You will continue to think of them and miss them but at least you can rejoice knowing they are having the time of their lives.
Dear Judi,
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I'm just a reader of your blog but it seems like you had wonderful parents. So fortunate!
I'm so sorry. I know from experience no matter how old we are it's never easy to lose our parents. Peace to you.
i'm sorry judy. please accept my condolences
Judy, my heart is with you as I just read this post. What a time of transition it is for you. I'm so happy you had a great mother's day and you have that memory. It is so hard to let go of our aging parents...and I can't imagine it happening so close together. I have a friend who just lost her mom as well and her died just passed 8 months ago. Praying for you as you walk this dark valley. God is with you. He promised that.
Hi Judy,
This is so strange. My dh's mother died on Friday May 14,2010 about the same time and his father died a year ago. We so understand what you are feeling.
Prayers and Hugs,
Elizabeth
