KILBURNFLYER

I saw something remarkable yesterday. My wife's mother died on Oct 2nd after a short illness and yesterday was her cremation and memorial service. My wife spoke in tribute to her for over 15 minutes. She was eloquent, heartfelt, controlled but above all magnificent. I love her dearly but have never been more impressed or proud of her than I was yesterday. I know I could not have done what she did without breaking down. I know I could not love my own mother more than she loved hers but her ability to hold it together at the most emotionally difficult time we will ever face was incredible. I love you Sheila - I don't know how you did that.
