Mr. Charleston is Mourning

Mr. Charleston is mourning the passing of his beloved mother.

She led a full life of nearly 90 years and died as she wanted, peacefully, in her sleep, in her own bed.  My mother, my parents, were one of the biggest blessings of my life and made me one of the luckiest people on earth.  Predeceased by my father, her husband of nearly 60 years, mom was the loving, supportive and forgiving mother we all want but few are lucky to have.

A part of me is gone and I will miss her terribly.

If you don't hear from me for a few days, you know why.  I promise I'll be back, as ornery as ever.

Mr. Charleston

    So sorry to hear about your loss. That was a beautiful tribute to her, and I'm sure she felt just as lucky to have such a loving son in her life.
