4. She was sure spunky, and loved her boy so. She got to see him be VP.

HOW COOL IS THAT???

92. We should all do so well.

[kayla9170]

6. Yes, she looked as if she was so proud..

At the Democratic Convention of the accomplishment that her son had achieved. As someone who lost their Mother in 2005 and my beloved Daddy in 2007, I can relate to what the Biden Family must be going thru during this time.

Ms. Biden was truly a blessed person to be able to live to the age of 92...and it showed in the various media pictures of her

[TygrBright]

52. Condolences to the Bidens on such a loss.

I'll never forget being in the bloggers' dungeon at the National Convention, and hearing Joe give his speech and talk about how his mom encouraged him. He said something about how one time he came home all upset about how another kid was beating on him, "and she told me, 'Son, you march right on out and smack him back! You've got to stand up for yourself!"

And then the camera panned up to where she was sitting, and she had turned to the person sitting next to her, and you could CLEARLY see her lips move, saying, "I did! I did tell him that!"

It was so dear. I know she'll be terribly missed. Such a close family.

Holding them in the Light.

bon voyage, Catherine...

sadly,
Bright
