53rd Wedding Anniversary

On June 12, it would have been my parent's 53rd Wedding Anniversary.
They met at the dance hall, Mosley on the Charles in Boston in the early 50's.

My Mom made it to the 50th and sadly her last anniversary celebration. My brother had a nice little cookout for them since they were not splashy people and did not want a tony event.

Eight months later, she passed away from complications of radiation after being cured of cervical cancer (she had the rare tumor type).

I found this video which reminded me of them yet sums up any life or relationship no matter what age you are or what time period you live in and loss.

Explosions in the Sky -- Your Hand in Mine

We all miss my Mom (Dad lost his dance partner.), especially my kids. She was such a good grandmother to them. I know she is still with us in so many ways.

Thanks for stopping by to my little cyber party for them -- she would have approved.
