I have just become aware that our senior and most accomplished forum member has just lost his mother. To Ray76, my deepest sympathy. I hope you all will join me in sending condolences to this good man who is such an intregal part of the SpanishDict community.

Ray, mi más sincero péseme por la pérdida de su Señora Madre.

Dear Ray, I always loved this picture of your mom under the umbrella. She is so beautiful and delighted to be outside enjoying the sun and your company. I think you called it "Pink lady under a blue umbrella".What a wonderful way to remember her joyful ways.

I'm so very, very sorry for your loss, Ray. The photos of your mom are beautiful, and I'm so happy they are shared here. [I'm one of the members here that remains stealth in the background and reads a lot on this site, but doesn't post terribly often.] May you continue to receive comfort and peace, especially in the beautiful words, thoughts, and prayers from people who love and care about you ... here, and everywhere.

Thank you ," they also serve" We who have been lucky to have had a great grounding from a parent who was always positive and happy have a duty to pass that love and happiness on to others less fortunate. Thanks mate. - ray76, May 26, 2013

Yes it all subject to change and impermanent , intellectually I know that , but there are times like these when our emotions will not accept that , but eventually after the grief we continue , and love some more and hopefully more often. - ray76, May 26, 2013

It's been quite a few days since I last entered the site, and it's sad to come and find out about this news. The end of life is always a reason to recall memories or feelings, all the perceptions we've had in life,"good" or "bad"; or whatever name people want to give them, and it's comforting to know you enjoyed you time with her.

We live to die, that's the only certainty in life, and your own experience will surely show you the way to allay the feelings this event has brought about; my condolences for your loss.

Oh Ray, ... Iam so sorry to hear that news... We all knew that she was a special person in ur life... and she will keep like this in your heart....

As Joyce said : I cannot say, and I will not say

That she is dead, she is just away!

With a Cheery Smile and a wave of the hand

She has wandered into an unknown land.

Please accept my deep condolences...
