Welcome back! Post 1– “Remembering Mom”

I’ve let this site slide for too long. I pledge to post at least once a week for the next year. I’ll be sharing some stories that have already been published but are special to me as well as new ones as they post.

To start: My mother died on July 18, 2014. I’ve written two pieces about that loss since then.

The first ran in The Philadelphia Inquirer in September. It’s about the importance of telling people that you love them. You can find it here.

The second ran in The Times-Picayune, a newspaper in New Orleans, in February. I described how I used some of my mother’s costume jewelry to decorate shoes for Mardi Gras. It appears here.

I hope you enjoy these pieces. They’re from the heart.
