“She protected those who didn’t have a voice.
She asked the questions most didn’t know to ask.
She shared her challenges and brought light to solutions.
To so many she was a brave warrior who articulated their fears.
She wasn’t fearless, but she faced them so we could learn.
But to me, she was just Mom.”
“Growing up, it was us against the world.
And then she took the world by storm,” he recalled.
“It’s always too soon, no matter how prepared we may be.
I feel you and know you are there,” he wrote.
Thank you for being the best mother any son could ever dream of.
I miss you already.
Call me greedy, but 57 years wasn’t enough."
Bruce acknowledged that he “received more love than I could ever imagine” during their time together.
“I love you so dearly,” he wrote.
“Happy Birthday on what would have been your 77th birthday.
Today, Heaven is lucky.”
“I was grateful that I was with her when she left us,” he said.
“And it was very peaceful and it was beautiful.
And she was beautiful.
And we had the whole family come, and they’ve been here ever since.
And we’ve been very upbeat about what’s going on.
There hasn’t been a grim moment.
Every time I feel it coming on, I leave the room so I can be alone.
But that’s life.
I don’t know what else to do.”
“We had conversations,” he said.
“We faced reality, like who knows what’s going to happen down the road.”
“She was an amazing, amazing woman,” he said.
“Aside from all her accomplishments, she was an amazing wife and an amazing mother as well.
She’s the one who pulled our family together.
I didn’t do it.
She really knew what she was doing.
So I will miss her.”
