I really do appreciate the support from my fellow TPFers that I have received over the past year through some tough times and some great times.

So thank you

That crazy bearded guy with a camera who just likes to push idiots buttons.

Also in 2007 I will be changing my business name and dropping the Deep Ellum thing-not that I won't be still involved in that scene but the name is too restrictive. So after the first of the year I will be getting the new name taken care of and then I WILL NEED MORE TPF HELP TO GET A REAL WEBSITE UP AND RUNNING!

Paul... I don't know your story, but I thank you for YOUR support as well. Amazing where we run into friends... people who care... people who will extend themselves, and go to some effort to help someone they may not even know. I've found a number of friends like that here... you being one of them. Blessings to you my friend. Can't wait to hear your new name! Happy Holidays to you!

I'm fairly new to the forum, but I can certainly see how sharing with this supportive group would be comforting. I hope this year was one of healing for you, one of reflection, and one of new beginnings. Good luck in 2007!

I didn't come along until March of this year Paul. But still I can understand what the loss of Mom can be.
Hopefully as the days go by you are filled with the happy thought and rememberances of time spent with your MOM.
Thanks for reminding me. GDO BLESS,

November 26, 2004 for me. Two years ago my mom passed away. Time passes by quickly but the rememberances never fade away and that is a good thing. Sharing with a forum such as this does help in coping and continuing on. I wasn't a part of this forum then, but am thankful that a wonderful member here showed me in the door!

Hi Paul,

I lost my mother in on December 17th of 1997. I can tell you that only time will make things easier for you, especially around this time of year.

It's never going to be the same, but it does become easier to deal with over time.

Your memories or your mom will always be with you. Just continue to live your life in the way that she would want you to.
