Happy Mother's Day

With my mom, in Marina Del Rey, 1991

My beloved mom passed away a few months ago, so Mother's Day this year is a little emotional for me. We were very close, and I miss her tremendously. We knew she was in her final days, she suffered a stroke last fall, and was basically bedridden that last five months of her life. But she taught me right to the end, handling the end of her life with dignity and grace, and it helped to comfort all of us knowing she was at peace. The outpouring of support and love I have received from my friends the last few months has been absolutely amazing and I am so grateful for each and everyone of you. And to all the mom's out there, Happy Mother's Day.
