She is...

She is...

Last night, my mother-in-law, Dawn passed away. I wanted to write about her because she is more than a mother-in-law to me. She treated me like her son and even more so after my own mother passed away.

She is a very special lady, the intellect of which was unrivaled. I used to love talking with her for hours on end. She was conversant on any subject from world affairs to politics to religion.

She is the one who first introduced me to talk radio, sparking my thirst for knowledge. Prior to meeting her, I used to listen to music on the radio constantly. I had to ride with her once and she was listening a local talk radio station. It started a conversation between us and ignited my love for talk radio to this day.

She is the one who help me spread my wings and get a "real" job, although she never put it that way, when I married her daughter.

She is a great grandma that had a tremendous impact on my children, fueling a love for life and challenges. At least one of my children loves puzzles thanks to her.

She is more than this little post or that time can describe.

She is someone that I greatly miss and have the hope of seeing in Heaven.

Because love matters,
George

What a sweet post. I am not sure what to say. Waves of emotion come and go. I am happy she is at peace, but still have a hard time thinking about walking into that little house and not seeing her. I am thankful that God allowed me time to make sure I said what i needed to, and although 18 months is short notice, I am blessed to be able to look back on that time and realize what long conversations God allowed to take place. I have learned incredible things from her.I will miss her physical presence however, she will be every where I go.
Love you
Love me
