She was always there for me when I was young, and I was always there for her when she needed me. I love you so much Mom, I will miss you...

My condolences Mac. I guess your Mum was a Jets fan, too.

The following is Shakespeare's 28th Sonnet, unaltered, for you. Of course its brutally tough to lose close family.




How can I then return in happy plight,
That am debarr'd the benefit of rest?
When day's oppression is not eased by night,
But day by night, and night by day, oppress'd?
And each, though enemies to either's reign,
Do in consent shake hands to torture me;
The one by toil, the other to complain
How far I toil, still farther off from thee.
I tell the day, to please them thou art bright
And dost him grace when clouds do blot the heaven:
So flatter I the swart-complexion'd night,
When sparkling stars twire not thou gild'st the even.
But day doth daily draw my sorrows longer
And night doth nightly make grief's strength
seem stronger.

What's he that wishes so?
My nemesis Lord Crosby? No, my fair fellow fans:
If we are mark'd for pucks, we are enow
To mark thy Pittsburgh loss; and if to live,
The fewer forwards, the greater share of honour.
Bone's will! I pray thee, wish not one injury more.
By the gods, I am not covetous for gold,
Nor care I who doth chug beer upon my cost;
It yearns me not if my mates my Reverse Retro jerseys wear;
Such outward things dwell not in my desires:

But if it be a sin to covet a Pitt win,
I am the most offending soul alive.
No, faith, my HF horde, wish not a man from Winnipeg
God's peace! I would not lose so great an honour
As one more Helly-borne shutout, methinks, would bequeath to we
For the best hope I have. O, to wish one more!
Rather proclaim it, Jetted friends, through my host,
That they which hath no stomach to this fight,
Let them depart; their passport shall be made
And dollars for some IPA put into his purse:

We would not die in that person's company
That fears his fellowship to die with us.
This day is called the feast of St. 'Peggers:
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
And rouse him at the name of the Peg.

Let me join all the others in offering my condolences on the passing of your mother. And indirectly, our thanks for her raising you into the great person you've become to the rest of us. She reached a fine age and got to enjoy her finest work become an adult and fellow hockey fan.

Thanks for including a photo for us at what is still such a sensitive time for you.
