Thanks for sharing this with us. If it would help to tell us some stories about your mom, I look forward to them (that helped when my dad died… we ended up trading stories with his co-workers, at his funeral, about his dry sense of humor and even some pranks). ---

My Mom had In Paradisum sung at her funeral – still hard to believe she is dead. I’m sorry you are going through this. May angels guide you and bring you into paradise: and may all the martyrs come forth to welcome you home; and may they lead you into the holy city, Jerusalem. May the angel chorus sing to welcome you, and like Lazarus, forgotten and poor, you shall have everlasting rest. ---
