My mom passed away

Whether the need is great or small, there is power in prayer, especially when God's people raise their voices together.

Thanks to everyone for your prayers. My brothers got her apartment emptied and its contents into storage. Her celebration of life is tentatively scheduled for January 9th, at the Caltech Atheneum, where she was a professor.

There’s 4 different storage units, in 4 different places scattered all over Los Angeles. Everything has to be consolidated in one location, and then my brothers and I have to figure out how to divvy it up, and donate the rest to a charity. It’s going to take about a week to get it all done, and then I’m probably quit of California for the last time.

Estate matters are proceeding smoothly, and I’ve gotten some great advice from my CPA, and also from my mother's financial advisor—who did very well for her.

It will be good to see my brothers and sisters in law again. My wife and son will join me out there for the shindig. My son's birthday will be the next day on the 10th, and my middle brother's the day after that on the 11th, so it should be a good gathering,

TAM, just now seeing this. We lost my father suddenly about 3 years ago. So sorry for your loss. Just know that it is normal for it to take months to process, and sometimes new things will hit. Just know that there are people in your life that you can and should talk too.
