Mother-In-Law Day

Today (October 23, 2022) is National Mother-In-Law Day (fourth Sunday in October), so I would like to remember and honor my mother-in-law Lorna, who passed on February 16, 2011.

This is my favorite photo of her and me. My wife snapped it on July 13, 2008, in a coffee shop in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada, when the three of us were on vacation, visiting my wife's family and friends in and around Toronto. I particularly like that she is small and is holding a big cup, and I am bigger and am holding a smaller cup.

She always encouraged me to become a better person with each passing day, while accepting me each day exactly as I was. For that, I thank her again. Lorna, you are sorely missed.
