Death is not extinguishing the light; it is putting out the lamp because dawn has come.
Rabindranath Tagore This memorial website was created to remember my beautiful mom, Rosalind Thon who was born in Canada on December 21, 1946 and passed away on May 29, 2005 at the beautiful age of 58. You will live forever in our memories and hearts mom. I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, forever and always my mama you'll be. In primo luogo mia madre, per sempre il mio amico...first my mother, forever my friend. I love you mom and I will see you in my dreams ~forever your baby girl..marla
Nearly three years ago, I said good-bye and hugged my mom for the last time...without even knowing it. May 28, me and my boys had dinner at moms with her and my dad, we laughed and squawked about this and that, such a casual, insignificant moment in time until the next day when she left us forever. That last visit with her replays in my memory like a video on constant replay. I have 'what if'ed the day to death wishing, hoping, praying,,,begging for a do-over, God please grant me that day one more time I would make it so much more, I would stay awake all night holding her, hugging her, telling her not to go...I would tell her how amazing I thought she was, how beautiful her soul was to me, and how incredibly grateful I was to have had such a loving soul as my mom. I know we don't get do-overs, its not part of the deal, but if God was really listening to the prayers coming from each bedroom in this house each and everynight for the past three years I know he would send her back for one more....hug...kiss...'I love you'.
This site is to remember my mom, not that we will ever forget such an amazing woman. I just want to have a place in time to send her our thoughts and love. Please feel free to leave your thoughts as well. My mom loved life, and everyone in it. God bless the butterfly...give her the strength to fly...never let her wings touch the ground!
