Today is the first Mother’s Day in 70 years that I will not be able to see or talk to my mother. Her passing on Jan. 23 this year was at once remarkable, unremarkable and a bit troubling for me. It was remarkable because she died at the age of 93 the morning of her 75th wedding anniversary in the arms of the only man she ever loved, my father.
