Bumping this up for those who hadn't seen this thread.

 

For my dad  2/21/94

For my sister 1/10/01

and for my mom 11/6/06

 

My family of origin is gone now but the family I created is living on.  A chapter of my life closes with my mom's passing last month.  A strange childhood, lonely and yet strength building.
