I still can’t believe my lovely mom is no more with us. I still see her everywhere, I miss her every moment. I realized that losing one’s mother is life’s most difficult, most unbearable experience.
She suddenly passed away after short illness, on 3rd December- the most horrible day for us. All efforts to save her failed and I know how my dad struggled to save mom by any means.
Yes, it was very shocking for me, my family, relatives, neighbors and friends. Most could not believe it happened. Like every mom on the earth, my mom was an amazing mom: She was a wonderful personality. I was very sad why this happened to her. Exactly one month ago, on 3rd November, we just celebrated Diwali very happily and nobody even imagined this would happen. Mom was 51 and was going to complete 52 years after one month of death. She was born on Tuesday (2nd January, 1962) and the day she passed away was also Tuesday.
It would take a whole book to write about mom’s sweet memories, but I am too upset, I cannot write more now.
Rest in peace, Mom! I see you everywhere.
Every time that I sigh,
I think of your face,
And a tear escapes my eye.
You were my world,
My inspiration and my heart,
But when you left me,
I thought I would fall apart.
I’ll make you proud mom,
I’m going to fulfill your wish,
You’re going to see me and smile,
That’s a daughter’s promise.”

Hi Jignesh,
Perhaps my first visit to your blog, and I’m so sorry to hear about your loss.
I just saw this on my G+ stream and headed right over. I know how it is to lose a mom, having lost mine a few years back. No words are there that can really comfort you in your time of loss, but believe me, she will always be with you, as your guardian angel…you just need to feel her. My prayers are with you and I hope He gives you the courage to go through this tough time of your life. God Bless you and your family.

I am shocked when i heard this sad news. It really very sad. Mom is mom. No one can take place of her.
I have few words for your mom.
Once upon a time an angel held my hand,
She wiped away my tears and helped me understand.
Our time on earth is brief, there’s lessons to be learned,
Each precious day God gives us another page is turned.
Every chapter full of memories, times of joy and tears,
Triumphs and defeats, through every passing year.
She loved us unconditional, always by our side,
When no one else would listen, in her we could confide.
With gentle words of wisdom she led us on our way,
Down the paths of righteousness if ever we did stray.
She saw the light in everyone and gave with no regrets,
Always from her heart let’s us not forget.
Angels come in many forms, for me it is my mother,
With love I cannot say in words there’ll never be another.
Every day I turn the page in my heart will ever remain,
Everything she taught me as I stroll down memory lane.
Thank you God for giving me the most priceless of all treasures,
Help my Lord to keep alive her memory here forever.
I pray that I can some day be everything she hoped I would,
That’s she smiling down from heaven knowing she did good.
As we gather here today there’s no ending to her story,
Another chapter has begun full of grace and glory.
Gods called her to his heavenly home, part of his great plan,
Although it may be hard, we all must understand.
Faith is what is hoped for, things we cannot see,
Heaven is promised to all of us if only we believe.
God bless you and your family. God gives peace to her soul.. 🙁
