At about 3 am Central time this morning, my brother's mother-in-law lost her fight with cancer. :"( It is always sad to loose someone close, expecially on Christmas Eve. May she rest in peace.

Tom,
Sorry for his loss. It is always sad but even more so during this particuliar time of the year. My wife lost both her father and later her step-father in mid December of years gone past and it has been hard for her during this time ever since.

Tom, my thoughts and prayers to all of your family members. I lost my mother between Thanksgiving and Christmas several years ago, and it a very hard time of the year to lose a loved one. Just keep remembering the good times you've shared.

God Bless you and your family,
Terry in California

Thoughts and prayers are with you and yours....do try to enjoy the Holiday. Our neighbors father passed away last evening, also a battle with cancer.

So sorry to hear of the passing. It must be hard to deal with this at this time. My grandfather passed away the day after Christmas years ago and I always thought he purposely held on long enough to not ruin everyone's holiday.

Our thoughts are with you and your family.

Regards,
Thomas

Sorrt to read of it, Steve, But somehow I am struck by the symmetry of people who die during Advent. as many people await the birth that changed the world.
