So sorry to hear, Mike. I lost mine in 2018, posted the photos of her in 2013 on page one of this thread. It sucks but it’s part of life.

![]() Mom at age 14. Later in life she laughed how whenever their family was taking pictures that stood next to the car. This is at the house my grandparents bought in 1930 and lived at until 1982.

Mom and dad, Christmas day 2019.
76 and 78 at the time, mom is now 77. Both high school valedictorians, and Vanderbilt graduates. They had my oldest brother before she finished undergrad (math), dad had finished his undergrad CHE degree and was in law school.

Nice, Jeff.
That first photo is haunting. I tried to find the street the first time you posted and came up empty. Here is my Mom, fifth generation Californian, shoveling snow when my Dad was at MIT in 1959 or so: She passed in 1990 at the age of 60 from the Emperor of All Maladies. What a Gal.

My mom in 2006, seven months before she passed away. Were she still alive, her birthday would be seven days from now and she would have been 102. Her dad died of the Spanish Flu.
