Time to Give Thanks to Our Mothers




As Thanksgiving approaches, I am thinking about how lucky I have been in life to have had both a wonderful mother and a too-good-to-be-true mother-in law. My mother, Mary, in blue above right, died last year and the family is still in various stages of mourning. Today, Naomi Schulman, my mother-in-law, passed away peacefully at the age of ninety. In the middle photograph, she is surrounded by her family; son Johnny on the far right, granddaughter Jenny is next, then Naomi, grandson Josh on her other side, her daughter and my wife, Margaret, and then me crowding in at the far left. Naomi and her two beloved grandchildren at bottom.
