Laura Ann Dombey
Mom, You are no longer with us. My grief is still raw. I was very honored to be able to be with you, the person who brought me into this world, as you left this world. You faded away in small increments as I treasured every last breath. Your life, examples of love and kindness, taught me everything good that matters in this world.   Later, afterward, your Great Granddaughter, Elle, almost four, was told you became an angel. She asked if she could see your wings. Still later she asked me if you could teach her to fly. I guess that job falls to me now. I will do my best to teach my children and grandchildren to fly, just as you gave us all wings to soar in our lives. I will try to do this by using your loving daily examples, your expressions of kindness and love. I will always miss you. I am grateful you were the one who was my mother.Love,Your Laura, your first-born
