My mother passed away this week from the big C. She had season tickets at The Rent for years and was probably the the main drawing card to our tailgates. She would hit it off with everybody. Rob Frey and his wife came once just because his wife wanted to say hello to Mom. A fan of the Giants of the 50's, she knew her FB too. Once she yelled "Clip" when no one else in the section had it, I didn't see a flag. Sure enough, "personal foul...." When the time came that she couldn't make it to games my interest took a hit, I must admit. I decided to post this because I know some of you had met her over the years.

Remember all the wonderful things about your mom. Focus on her life, not her passing. Very sad. Very sorry for your loss.

My condolences to you. I lost both my parents to the Big C. My dad had Bladder Cancer and he died in 2008, my mom from Stomach Cancer in 2017. Remember the good times with your parents...
