For the Record Sunday Nov 26/2023

 Today started off like any other day here at resort with beach and pool as needed.

At 2 PM I called Dad to ask how he was doing.Turns out Mom went into hospital yesterday and Dad didn't have an update for me. I contacted Pat and Sam with Pat Facetiming from the hospital.

It is obvious Mom was in very poor condition and the outlook was  grim.

We had a previously scheduled family meal together at the Japanese specialty restaurant. 


Pat Facetimed me again with more grim news and some time later  with another FaceTime session from the hospital we called the kids into the room and with Pat placing the phone near Mom's ear they all said some words to their grandma.

Mom died shortly after 10 PM eastern time (Cancun time), We were on FaceTime when the doctor pronounced Mom's passing.


Huge thanks to Pat and her family for holding the camera and allowing everybody at our end to witness our communal loss.
