My condolences, Frau.

Well it's sure good to hear the 'aftermath' is coming along in a dignified manner. On the one hand, the fact that she kept everything might be a problem, but I'm sure you stumble upon lots of things that'll make you smile, or that are in some way dear to you.
Of course I don't know the backstory, but it seems to me that despite problems you might have had, her keeping all your stuff including vaccination papers, shows you meant a lot to her.
Once again, I wish you much strength, and cherish those good memories.

Had the same experience about eighteen months ago when I lost my father.

Even though my mum is still alive she was unable to help because of the onset of early dementia.

I hope it goes as smoothly with your family as it did between my younger brother and I.

So you don't plan to keep your printed GWX manual in triplicate any more?

Thanks for letting us know. This site really is the best.

Thoughts and prayers to you and your loved ones.

Losing a mother is tragic and it hurts, no matter how close you were.

Hang in there.
