Re: In Memory Of Our Mothers

However, her one and only son is pastoring and the rest of us serving God. I think that speaks well of my parents. God has been good to our family...and as mom is fast approaching her last days (alzheimers) we are always reminded of what a strong individual she was... even in her sickness, she has had strength, and one of the longest going alzheimers patients I have ever heard of. She was diagnosed in 1996... She now only weighs about 75lbs and most systems are failing. She probably won't live to see next Mother's day... she is very weak. So, I honor her for her love to her husband, his ministry and to her family. She labored by my dad's side in the ministry for over 40 years.
This is a pic of mom and her 4 girls in 1970... and as my sisters say...my sister Lyn is frowning because she is tired of trying to get the stubborn youngest child to smile... I was not shy, but stubborn...
Here is another one when I was a baby that includes my father in the older building... so that would have been in 1968... 4 years before my brother came along.
Here is her and all 5 kids in 2006
