Tribute to My Mom

My sweet mother, Gladys Castle, went home to be with Jesus on Wednesday, January 13, 2021.  During this time of Covid is a difficult time for loss. Mom and I  had our last conversation per phone on Dec 20, 2020.  Mom was 89 and lived a productive life. A huge thank you to my sister Linda who cared for mom in her home for over a year.  Thank you for stopping by.

    Looks like a wonderful bunch of ladies. Wish I knew you all.

    I leave Thursday to go visit my own Mom. Perhaps it will be my last time to see her this side of heaven; she also is doing poorly. I write with tears in my eyes, but it's okay; like your Mom, she's going home to a loving Lord.

    I am so sorry about your Mom, Gail. Having not been able to see her these past months must have been so troubling. Thank you for sharing this photo. What a lovely family you have, and your Mom was a beautiful lady. I know your faith is strong, and the God of all comfort is always there. I just prayed for you, my friend.

    OH! Gail I'm so sorry, losing a mother is dreadful at any age, however with the many memories you have of her, it must be so hard for you and the family. Your Mum looks lovely and to bring so many of you up, it must have been hard for her and your Dad. I'm glad to hear she had a productive life. She will now go to Peace.
    Keep safe
