"If It Was Going To Be Easy,
It Never Would Have Started With
Something Called "Labor!"
But, that's what Motherhood is ...
"A Labor Of love."
Even in spite of all the "Joys of Motherhood"
I've encountered, it's still the greatest joy that I've ever known.
There is a legend that says that since God could not be physically
present amongst all His people at all times, He created Mothers
to take His place. Looking at the smile of the face of a Mother
as she looks at her baby explains it all very clearly.
As we age, we begin to realize the value of a mother's love and the
enormous depth of her commitment to us. No other relationship we
form can ever be as close or profound as that with our mothers.
Every human being carries with him or her the seal of "Maternal Love."
We always remember the maternal tenderness which is very hard to
remove from the heart. Even when we grow old, there remains the distant
memories and the strong desire to see our Mothers once again.
I am dedicating this page to my own mother, "Alice,"
as a Special Memorial to her. Sadly, I lost her in 1990...
Her death was very unexpected and even though so many
years have passed, there is still a veil of sadness that
surrounds my heart because of her loss.
She will always live on in a very special part of my heart.
Alice Virginia (Kaye) Trutza
God sent her to us:
June 23rd, 1919
