Mother passed away

My mother passed away Feb. 19th, 2009 at 4:55 pm. The family was by her side when she took her last breath. We had been expecting this for a while now but we still wasn't ready for it to happen. Funeral service will be Tuesday Feb. 24th. We went to the funeral home this evening and they had her fixed up nice. She had gone down so much during her illness and had been in so much pain but now she is at rest. She looked like she was just sleeping. It is hard to let go but we know she is in no more pain and even though we miss her so much we wouldn't bring her back. We had been taking care of her for 6 years so it is going to take some getting use to not going in and checking on her. It is hard to believe that she is gone.
