April 21st

April has always been my least favorite month of the year... and most specifically, the 21st is my least favorite day. Besides the fact that I get seasonal depression in this month, I lost both of my parents in April... dad in 2004 and mom in 2006. Although they passed on different days, my last good-bye to each of them was on the 21st.

Here they are back in their day... quite beautiful people.

This photo was taken in 1988. Things were good then and this is how I remember them most in my mind.

God bless you mom and dad. Thank you so much for being wonderful parents. Everything good inside of me is because of the both of you.

Sending you hugs today as you remember the two most important people in your life. You favor your mother in her younger days. They look like movie stars.

Jeanne what a beautiful tribute to your Mom and Dad. They are watching from the clouds and while they may be gone in body, their spirit is inside you and in your heart. Hugs to you on this difficult day.

I'm sorry this day makes you so sad Jeanne. Your parents were a beautiful couple. Your Dad's old pic makes me think of Paul Newman. :)
