Mothers Day Message from Ray

[Craig]

I wish all those readers and Forum members who are mothers a happy Mother's
Day!.  I have nothing but fond memories for my own mothers.  She was a gentle,
loving, kind, and giving person all the days of her life. And for this, God took her in
her sleep at the age of 90.  I know of too many situations where the mother of a
family is not given the honor and respect she deserves.  What a horrible and
disgusting thing it is to dishonor one's own mother.  While it is true that not all mothers
are as worthy of honor has they should be, nonetheless, it behooves all children to
take the lead in doing whatever is possible to bring about reconciliation to those
broken homes. I could tell you stories that would literally break your heart.

My wife and I are both in a great deal of pain the last week or so, and therefore
haven't done very much except to sit side by side encouraging one another. I
don't know what I would do without her. And, of course, she says the same thing
of me.  We often kid about what a mess we are not able to do so many things we
would like to do for each other.  But sometimes just being there can be the greatest
gift of all. I hope and pray that you will all treat your mothers today and every day in
a way that will give you only fond memories when they are gone.

God be with you all,

Ray

Thank you and I want to thank the men who bless us with wonderful sons and daughters.  I had a beautiful mother's day lunch with my eldest daughter, Carli, who treated me to a delicious meal at her favorite vegan restaurant and former place of employment, Au Lac.  So I pigged out on sweet and sour "chicken," vermicelli noodles, mixed greens.  "With six you get "egg" roll.

:-D 

She's a fun story teller.  She told me about the policeman who frequents the restaurant and teases her about how fast she eats -- "Carli, remember to chew each bite 30 times..." haha,  It's a bad habit she got from me.  And then she told me how much enjoys her new job at Hasbro in Burbank. 

Being Carli's mom is the best gift ever.

Therefore, I should say goodbye to you all now.
