Prayers are with you Dave, as I know personally, that this is a difficult time for you. But you always kept it real and now she is resting in peace with the Dear Lord. May God Bless her for all the things that she endured through your growing up years.

What a beautiful sentiment for your mom. Mother's never leave us, their stories and their spirit remain with us. After all, they are the only ones who felt our heartbeat before we were born. Stay strong Dave.

It was such a blessing to see you, your wife and the children so involved with your Mom's journey. You all definitely "Keep it real". She sure loved it when your wife fixed her hair and you made a fuss ~ you and your lil family made a great impact in her live. God bless you! You two are an incredible example of what family is all about. 👏 💝 🙌

So sorry for your loss ❤️My Mom passed 6 years ago and I miss her daily. May God give you and your family comfort and strength to navigate through this difficult time 🙏I’m send you this quote because it helps me when I’m missing my Mom.

Death is nothing at all. It does not count. I have only slipped away into the next room. Nothing has happened. Everything remains exactly as it was. I am I, and you are you, and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by the old familiar name. Speak of me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference into your tone. Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was. There is absolute and unbroken continuity. What is this death but a negligible accident? Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner. All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before. How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!

I wish I had even talked to my mom, (never seen her or talked to her, it was her wises after breakup.) she left my brother and me as very small children due to my alcohol father. You’re truly a lucky man to have had so many special happy memories, of your mom. You carry on in her memory, honest and true blue. Knowing you from TikTok is a pleasure, and your honest views.

Im so sorry about your Mom. I'm sure she's smiling on you from Heaven because of the beautiful tribute you wrote for her.

I lost my Momma and my Daddy both and in 2018 my daughter died from glioblastoma ( fast growing cancer of the brain.) Diagnosed the day after Thanksgiving, and died 18th of December.

I'm sending prayers for you and your family for comfort and consolation during this difficult time of grief due to the loss of your beloved Mother.

God bless you and your family Dave.
