How do you say goodbye to your mother

When I was living in Taiwan, my awesome stepmother passed away and I felt a major loss. My father had died a couple years before, so that parental group was gone out of my life.

They both died fairly young and I hoped my mother and stepfather would live many more years. I was lucky up until March 6 when, I am sad to write, my mother passed away.

No one in my family really saw it coming but, I have to admit, she was not the same person I knew and admired growing up.

Many people know my Dad worked for NASA and that I am related to Neil Armstrong. What is lost sometimes is my mother worked for NA...
