Default RIP Linda

Well, it seems I am at 2 years in a row for finding reasons to dislike December. We just lost my mother in law, although we had our differences and I had perhaps wished her gone at times, the 13 years I have known her ended the later half with appreciating her for the gift she have me of her daughter. I am the man I am today that steps up to carry everyone else's weight in my wife's family to keep things afloat and because of that, i am allot stronger than I thought.

She has been fighting breast cancer for a long time, she beat it but it returned and her age did not help this time around. I asked her to stick around for one more Christmas and she did.

She is in a better place with no suffering and with my third child who we lost just a year ago. Her husband who passed 12 years ago will be welcoming her as well.

Thank you for any prayers you can send guys, she has my wife and 4 boys she has left behind and 6 grandchildren.

I am trying to figure out how to tell my 5 year old tomorrow.

Her request was to be cremated, and funds are not the best for us, so anyone wanting to help out, I will post my paypal. It is absolutely the worst time to ask for help but I know I do what I can for others when I can and everyone else seems to be the same. It is near 700$, which is great compared to some other prices we found.

Thanks for any help guys.

Hey, it doesn't matter if you didn't send any cash at all, keeping my family in your thoughts is enough. Some can give something and feel good for contributing financially. I was expecting a little over 300$ for the services but at the last minute for some reason we didn't qualify. Either way, it will be done, just unfortunate that her 4 boys cannot help at all, they are not grounded as far as finances go.

Yes sir, it does make the next Christmas a little harder but still glad she is no longer suffering.
