MY LIFE NOW…
Life changed for me on April 4th. Chris and I were in Palm Springs looking at property when I got the call. It was my sister -in- law calling… ”Jacqui, its your mother…” I knew immediately … My heart dropped and my Life changed…
Its a very different feeling when your mother passes on… unexplainable really… What do you do…
Chris sprung into action re- arranging our flights, getting us back to Los Angeles, back to NYC, and then to Connecticut.
My Father, My Sister, My Brother… all of us in shock… planing a funeral… My Mom knew how to do everything, I wanted to call her and ask here how to plan a funeral… I actually picked up the phone many times to ask her advice… thats what I always did… I called my Mom for answers… what now…
Over those following days I learned a lot… I learned about myself, my family and my friends.
Chris was an absolute support for us all… I could not of gotten through it with out him, and I will always be grateful… He is my hero…
These are the times you find out who your friends are… I have gotten so many calls, texts, emails, cards… people sent flowers, fruit and food…
I am humbled by the out pouring of love for my Mother and my family… I am so thankful to everyone… thank you, thank you…
I am amazed by my Father. His strength and bravery are unsurpassed… I have learned so much about life by watching him. His loyalty, His integrity , His love for my mother… He is a Man amongst Men… I am speechless…
The most melancholy thing to me about death, is that life goes on. I am struck by that daily…
I love you Mom and I will miss you everyday…
