In reply to the discussion: My 98 year old mom died on 12/12 - COVID-19 related. [View all]peacebuzzard
(5,383 posts)61. I am so very sorry to hear this.
I am so sorry, 3catwoman3, your mom was a hero and a survivor.
I have no words to express how sad I am to hear this news.
I lost my mom years ago, just a short time after my time in Rochester; mom was very young, this was so long ago, she was and always has been my best friend. I am sure your mom was and always will be your best friend too.
This is beyond sad about your mom.
I will be sending prayers, vibes, wishes that you find solace and strength in this heartbreaking moment.
