I hope you all missed my writings but my mother passed on.
We had her funeral on Sturday. I will really miss her because she was a unique lady.
I had a eulogy during the funeral and I wanted to print this for all to see.

Moms Eulogy

Mom didn’t know what happened on Saturday when she had her stroke. She didn’t know she was going to die. She was in relatively good health for an 86 year old person.
She didn’t have time to say goodbye to anyone. She didn’t have time to prepare for death. But I will say one thing; she was ready to meet her maker.
She lived her religion and faith. Not on the cuff but a deep rooted faith that let her be at peace in her soul while she was alive. She had no fears because she believed in God. This gave her an outward innocence about her that was unique to Mom.
In business I have taken a few courses for educational purposes. One course that I took was the Dale Carnegie Course which was based on his book on “How to win friends and influence people”.
Mom never took that course or knew who Dale Carnegie was. But she was the best example of what he wrote about. He was known for his three C’s. Now just reflect on Martha for a moment while I review the 3 C’s.

The first was do not Criticize. I can’t remember a time that she ever criticized a person. She always saw the good in people. She always was willing to help if she could.

Next is don’t Complain. No one likes to be around a complainer. Did any of you ever hear her complain? She would tell you she was hurting but that was a statement of fact but she didn’t complain about it. That’s why people liked to be around her and even help her out because she wouldn’t complain no matter how bad things were. She just dealt with the problem or passed over the problems and let them work their own self out.

The third C is condemn. A perfect Bible phrase she practiced was “Yea without sin cast the first stone”. She never cast a stone in her life because she loved people.

She loved life and all the people she met. That was Mom.
