I love you Mom.

Kathy Ann Hartog 

June 8, 1950 – March 8, 2008

She died surrounded by her family. We held her and watched as she took her last breath. We waited with her for two hours until she was taken away. We said our good-byes.

I miss her already. So much.

    Words can’t explain the heartfelt sorrow we feel for you and your family’s loss. May you soon find the peace that you need.

    It’s beautiful that you were all there with her.

    Now she’s there with all of you.

    Let us know what we can help with. We love you.

    jen…..no words can make you feel better. i wish they could. if they could i would say them. i am so so terribly sorry for your loss. you were there for your mom. having just gone through this with james when his dad died…waiting at the house for them to come and pick him up…and it wasn’t my mom i lost…i am just so saddened. but hoping you will find some peace in the fact your mom is no longer in any pain. you were there for her. she knew you loved her. you still do. a part of her will always be with you. and your sisters. and your dad. i wish i could make this surreal time in your life go away. peace to you and your entire family.

  13. Jen,
    I am so very sorry for your family’s loss. Three years ago I stood beside my Dad as he, too, took his last breaths after a 8 month battle with lung cancer. I know the pain you are experiencing. God will get you thru it. There will be bad days, awful days, and some really good days where you remember her love and funny memories. Time does help and the pain won’t seem so raw as the days pass.

    Love,
    Jennifer
