    My dad usually gets up early and mom gets up a little while later. After she didn't come for breakfast at the usual time, dad went back to the bedroom and found her. She had passed away peacefully in her sleep at the age of 84.

    It was a real shock, because she hadn't been sick at all lately. The whole family was over there yesterday for Easter and to celebrate my daughters birthday along with 2 cousins birthdays. Mom was just fine all day, even played some ladder golf out in the yard. Just goes to show, you never know when your time is up.

    Sorry to hear that JM. :( WTH is going on around here lately??

    As with my father, at least she went peacefully in her sleep. All things considered, you can't ask for much more.

    My thoughts and prayers are with your family my friend.

    Wow, John... Don't know what to say, except I'm glad the family got to enjoy the time with her yesterday and that she went peacefully after a good, long life.
