WILL NOT BE POSTING MUCH FOR A WHILE....

Best Blog Tips

My mother, Eve (Marie-Evelyn) Tonge Urbina last Christmas, age 92


Dear Friends, I'm not going to be posting much for a while. My dear mother, age 93, is very ill and, between caring for her needs, work, and hosting my siblings and cousins who have come to spend a little time with her....well, you understand. We are so lucky to have such a loving family and good friends nearby!


Wishing the best in 2011 to all of you!

My mom passed in 2005 at 92. Yes, she lived a long life and yes, she was ready to go. But that does not make it any easier to say goodbye.

My thoughts are with you and your family.

Bryanna Clark Grogan said...

Thanks for your kind thoughts, prayers and wishes, everyone! Bridget, you are exactly right-- thank you.

Hi Bryanna,

Take care of yourself as well as your Mom during this time of working through illness and aging. You have so much here for me to read, I can wait as long as it takes for you to return to your brilliant Vegan creations.

She is a beautiful woman. My mother is 92 and lives several states away so I don't get to see her often but she is a joy to visit when I'm able. You are doing what is most mportant. Treasure this time with her & in the meantime you are on my google reader.

Eve is beautiful, Bryanna. Thoughts and prayers going out to you and yours. Please take care of yourself too :^)
