Today the Dane family lost our foundation.
Mom passed away this morning. While we are devastated by losing her, she is no longer suffering. Mom was a vibrant, extraordinarily woman. She and Dad were married for 57 years during which they had many amazing adventures. The two of them made a truly fantastic team. Meredith, Michelle, Brent and I could not have asked for a better mom. She always loved and supported us, even when we made that hard to do. She was Abuela to JP, Natalia, Joshua, Connor, Matthew, Coleson and Sara. They were her magnificent seven. She has left a huge empty space that will never be replaced. We are fortunate that our family is very close and we share many incredible family memories.
For all of you who have followed her blog, Mom was always an amazing writer who showed her wit and humor. She so enjoyed writing her blog. Thank you for your friendship, love and prayers.
What a great family. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and photos at this difficult time. I will always remember her when I go through Lone Pine, Bishop, and the Alabama Hills. I read her blog for years. Very sweet lady! The pups will need extra cuddles from Bill. Take care.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear this. A wonderful lady. We only met a few times and were so impressed with Raymonda. Our thoughts are with Bill and the Dane family.
