Default I Lost My Mom 25 Years Ago Today

I lost my mom 25 years ago today. She was 54. My father left us when I was 5 causing my mom to raise me by herself. Mom enrolled me in Mt Carmel elementary school in Bayonne NJ. Eight years of Polish nuns. Then 4 years of Jesuits in Marist high school and Seton Hall Universary. She died on August 8th 1979. I had made it through my first year of law school at Villlanova law school. A week before her death this photograph captured our love towards each other and the last time I saw her alive.. I spoke with her the night before and my last words were "I love You" A quater of a century later the hurt never seems to diminish! We take it for granted that they will always be there. Especially when they are only 54! I would love just one more thank you and a tight hug~I thank her for everything I am today!~~ Eric
