Oh Daddy, you are so sweet and such a nice to say. I agree Lucky... Even though she has passed away, you carry on her good deeds in you. Please remember that and don't forget that she lives in you. Big hugs~~~

 

She had to be an amazing women because she produced such an amazing son. May she rest in peace.

I don't think it matters who you are and what relationship you had. Losing your mother to time .. at least to me ... has to be one of the most painful experience. Losing that life long friend,guide, mentor, caretaker, sounding board. No matter what else she was and is the witness to your life who in some manner shared your joys and pains hopes and dreams. But the truth is you are her key to immortality in the life you live and lessons she taught you that you lucky so freely and with an open heart pass on to others. I agree she must have been an amazing woman given the caring man she helped create in you.

 

My sincerest condolences and my hope your pain of loss in lightened by many warm memories that you will cherish even more today and in the days to come. I am so sorry for your loss. But celebrate the success of a life she obviously felt knowing you were her legacy.

Sorry to hear this. Losing a parent puts you in a special club that nobody wants to join but we all do eventually. People not already in the club simply cannot understand the feelings that come from membership, hard as they might try. Those of us there already do understand, though.

 

Condolences.

Lucky, My sincere sympathy and heartfelt wishes go out to you at this sad time. Having to say goodbye to your mom is never easy, no matter what the circumstances might be. Take comfort in knowing that you were loved unconditionally by her and in the many good memories that you have of her. I can think of no better legacy for a mother to leave than that of a good and kind son such as yourself. I'm sure that your mom was very proud of you.

 

Take care,

Lucky...I was a young man, not long out of college, when I had to give up my mother. It hurt like crazy to let go, and I couldn't understand then the beauty of what would come of her passing. Still all these years later, I think about her love, encouragement, and instruction every day, and now I know that she never left me. I pray you find similar comfort as you remember her life and value the memories of a lifetime.

My sincerest sympathies for you at this time. I hope and pray that the support of your friends, family and other loved ones will provide you with comfort during this trying period in your life. Everyone deals with grief and the loss of a loved one in their own way but for me an important and useful part of the grieving process is to celebrate their life and to remember all the good times.

Nicely put, Deej. Having lost my Dad a few years ago I can relay what you're expressing. There's one thing that I didn't tell my Dad before he passed away - that I was really grateful for everything he has ever done for me and also that I love him ... Cherish your parents while they're still alive and tell them often that you love them.

 

My condolences to Lucky.

My condolences Lucky! As your Mother has commenced her voyage to a different stage of being, she is loving you more than ever before. May you cherish the wonderful moments you had together.

Loss of Mother Poem

 

Now that I am gone,

remember me with smiles and laughter.

And if you need to cry,

cry with your brother or sister

who walks in grief beside you.

And when you need me,

put your arms around anyone

and give to them what you need to give to me.

There are so many who need so much.

I want to leave you something --

something much better than words or sounds.

Look for me in the people I've known

or helped in some special way.

Let me live in your heart

as well as in your mind.

You can love me most

by letting your love reach out to our loved ones,

by embracing them and living in their love.

Love does not die, people do.

So, when all that's left of me is love,

give me away as best you can.

Thanks Oliver for bringing this to our attention. Coop

Lucky posted this message to those who have sent condolences on MER's parallel thread. I have taken the liberty of re-posting it here.

Many, many thanks for the kind thoughts. I arrived here shortly after my mother passed away, so as of yet have not seen her. The first viewing is this afternoon, with another in the evening. The funeral is tomorrow.

Many of you have already gone through this and know what it is like. For the others, I hope it is a long time before you lose your mother.

 

My mother was my friend. She accepted my partner of 38 years as a member of the family. He's listed right there in the obituary next to my name.

 

Many of my friends who met my mother liked her, and it was frequently said that "gosh, I wish my mother was like that." We know of so many homes where the gay son loses touch with his parents because they cannot accept their homosexuality. It may not have happened immediately with me, but my mom and dad did come around early enough and accepted me as a gay man without reservation.

 

Mom was the kind of person who would talk to anyone, and she made a lot of friends this way. Yes, sometimes it embarrassed me when she would approach a total stranger and ask why they were buying so much olive oil at Costco, but the other parties never seemed to mind.

 

So, today and tomorrow is good-bye, and I know it will be hard. I think it is a great thing that one can receive so much support from the guys who post together with me on the internet. If one of you guys who posts at Daddy's could do me a favor, since I am banned from posting there, could you post a thank-you to all of the guys there who have similarly expressed their condolences? I would appreciate it.

And, by the way, I received a nice email from the guy who I think is the Real Rock Hard!

MSGuy, thanks for posting this. I wasn't sure if Lucky still follows this board, so I sent him an email rather than posting here.

Thanks, MSGuy, and please forward all of these posts to Lucky. I was not aware that he was "banned" from posting or accessing this site. What a wonderful comment about his mother and dad and their acceptance of Lucky and his partner. I have some friends who have had a similar experience, including unconditional acceptance of the adoption of children of another race. Unfortunately, I have some other friends whose parents are still not very accepting, but only "tolerating". I am so very happy that Lucky had the parents that he did/does. May his mother rest in peace.

If this is true, could someone please fix it?

 

...since I am banned from posting there (Daddy's)...

Why on earth would Lucky be banned from here? I sure hope this isn't true and he is mistaken. I'm sure when the curtain comes down on every stage of drama, the queens with asses stuck to thrones can hop off and do the right thing.

 

I'm delighted to hear that Lucky had a good relationship with his mother. I know so many gay guys who hate their parents and hearing such news always makes me very sad. However, loving someone intensely means that when you lose him or her, the pain is equally as intense. But, honestly, I do know this: great love and friendship is worth that pain.

Lucky. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. She sounds like a great lady. I'm sure she was very proud to have such a wonderful son that wasn't afraid to share his life with her. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.
