My mom, Nora Mirle Meeker Henry

My mom passed from this life to the next around midnight of September 30th, 2013, not quite 10 years after my father's death. I was able to spend the last three weeks with her. She died exactly as she had wanted to - at home, not in pain, in her own bed, lucid and funny to the end. I miss her more than I can say.
