Asuncion.

The morning of Saturday, December 10th, my girlfriend Nora’s mother, Asuncion, passed away at the age of 79 after an extended struggle with pulmonary fibrosis. She was surrounded by family at the time, chatting and joking up with them up until the end, when she simply closed her eyes, took a couple of final breaths, and departed.

She was the much-beloved matriarch of the family, and spent a lifetime raising, caring for, and sharing her love with her many children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She will be greatly missed. If you can, please spare a brief thought for both her and those who grieve her loss.

  1. My sincerest and deepest condolences to Nora and you, Mike. I’m sorry and wish you both the best going forward.

  2. It seems a cliche’, but I’ve found when dealing with the loss of a loved one, it is with the remembrance of their life, and of our time with them, that the departed are ever-present and always loved.

    Rest in peace, Asuncion.
    My thoughts are with you and your loved ones.

  3. My sympathies, Mike, to you and yours. It’s a hell of a thing, losing a parent. May Nora and those around her find some measure of peace.
