Man; I surely would love to get to one of these, and was hoping this might be the one - but alas, My 85 year old Mother (who has been in a "memory Impaired" Home for the past several years), passed over Jordan at 2:23 AM Tuesday Morning, and we need to prepare for a little Family memorial gathering here on Sat..

It was about as decent a dying as one could hope for, I suppose; she went downhill, healthwise, very quickly, and was given top-of-the-line medication to ease her suffering, including a morphine "pump" towards the end. Many of the family came to visit her and say their goodbyes in the final hours, and my Brother Dave and I were with her when the time came... and I sang her Home to "Angel Band".

There has been some thought of posting about the experience on Mudcat, but I don't suppose folks would be much interested.

Anyway, I'll miss you all, and the chance to blend our voices and hearts in song... perhaps another time - soon I hope.
