    A thought, if you will.

    My mom died, yesterday, very suddenly. She was only 66 and, though she had some health problems, nobody suspected they were terminal.

    She gave me my Irish side - Bishops and O'Briens. She was as pigheaded and bossy as I am. We butted heads for 45 years and I miss the hell out of her already.

    So, spare a thought for her today, if you will. Members of the Twin Tiers Kilt club, please lift a pint in her honor on Saturday. She was a lady who enjoyed a pint or two in her day.

    Bob,

    Please accept my condolences. Remember the good times with your mother. I'm sure even "butting heads" will be a fond, though perhaps bittersweet memory of a confident woman who could hold her own.

    My thoughts and prayers for both of you, Bob. Despite the shock of this sudden loss, I'm glad that you can find solace in your memories.

    If possible, could you PM me her name so I can personalize my remembrance of her?
