In reply to the discussion: My mom - a DU member since 2002 - has passed away [View all]dorkzilla
(5,141 posts)35. So sad to hear of your mom's passing...
One is blessed with a wise mum...mine is Irish and a teatard (never naturalized either, and yet she says shes a "patriot" LOL!!!!!!!) so I'm envious you had her. I love my mum, but I'm happy to have my Mayflower-descendant liberal dad to bounce shit off of. I'm lucky to have them both though. So sorry youve lost such an amazing mum...indeed I'm sad for all of us.
Much love to you
From your DU family.
