am yisroel chai and everyone else who is dearly missing a loved one – I cannot say anything more than what aries did so eloquently. I was also blessed to have my mother for 92 years and it is just 3 years since we lost her earthly body. I know that she is somewhere, still laughing and asking anyone under 60 if they are married, because has she “got someone for you”. After quite a long period of sadness when thinking of her, I am now able to laugh out loud when I think of the things that she said. I am now with my family in Toronto for the Yonmtovim and my daughter and I have mentioned her in our conversations several times daily – always with laughter because she loved to laugh and, as everyone called her, she was the lady with the million dollar smile. So, eventually things will get better and the good memories will overtake the bad ones. I know that it is difficult to believe at this time, but it will happen. I wish you a peaceful New Year.
