Eulogy....

On Thursday, January 10,2013 my mothers battle with cancer ended... She passed peacefully in her sleep. On saturday the 12 th we honored her with a memorial service, I gave one of the eulogies which follows..

On Thursday afternoon I watched as my mother took her final breath, free from pain and at peace. It saddened me greatly to see her go, yet at the same time I knew that she was indeed ready to go on to her new home. She had struggled so hard in her last days hurting and it pained her to have to depend on the care of others, Momma didnt much like having to depend on others for much of anything that way.

I have been reflecting on the influence that my mother had on me through out mt life.. she taught me how to cook and to sew and most importantly to her she taught me how to give a 'proper' dinner. By the time I finished elem school I was the only kid in my class that could give a dinner party; when my friends were over there were no paper plates, forks or napkins but dinnerware silver and cloth napkins.

The most important thing that my mother taught me was that it was okay to be an independant person, that there is much more room to spread ones wings outside the box than staying inside the restraints of conformity.

I struggled much with the lessons that my momma tried to teach me though I know she did the best that she could.
