Remembering Mother on Her Birth Anniversary

My loving Mother Joan passed away a year ago. Tomorrow the 15th of October would have been Mum’s birthday, now we can remember her Birth Anniversary. My Mother Joan would always remember her Dad’s birthday, on the 2nd of October and she would cook us special food on the day, as a way of celebration. Mum loved to talk to us about her father and about all the special memories she had of him

On Mum’s birth anniversary, my wife and I will remember her by preparing special food, reminiscing about the special times we as a family all shared together, looking through old photo albums and the last photos we have of her. My Dad will miss my Mother a lot on her birthday, which, are the hardest of times when a loved one passes away. My sister will celebrate her husband’s birthday on the same day. In this way, she will always have a celebration at her home.
