Amazing Grace




I've been thinking about my mom a lot lately. She passed in July of 1995 on my Dad's birthday. He said she picked that day so he would never forget.

"Amazing Grace" was her favorite hymn. We were in the waiting room of the hospital and the song suddenly began playing on the television. My brother said, "We're coming , Mom." and, when we got to her room, the nurses were removing her breathing tubes. She was gone.

I love you, Mom.
