What a comfort to your mum to have you there, holding her hand. Sadly, death is hardest on the living. My thoughts are with you and family, Ford.

Thanks for all the support. Mom's funeral went very well. It was a beautiful day and the pastor gave a moving service. I have a very blended family and it was the first time since I was a child that all my siblings were together.

Unfortunately as soon as we got back to the house my stepbrothers immediately confronted my siblings and me about the finances and will. They are super pissed. I am meeting with a lawyer tomorrow.

Sigh.  I'm sorry they spoiled the day of your mother's service.

I love the way you composed that sentence. You definitely have a nice, delicate way with words.
Sometimes the expectations and shocked egos come to the forefront in an ugly way after a death and reading of the will. It is unfortunate. In all but rare circumstances, the will rules in litigations.

I am very sorry Ford. But at least she was with you and with the people she loved till the last moment. You must always remember that.
