My Dad died in 2003 leaving my Mom alone after being married for 58 years. The following year Jim died from esophageal cancer. I naturally began to spend more time with my Mom. A sister of her's had moved to Colorado after losing her husband in 2002. We started to get together once in a while. In 2006 a good friend of my Mom's lost her husband, Here were these three women who had spent most of their lives being married and now were basically alone. They all had wonderful children but something was missing.
In August of 2007after selling our house in Bailey, we decided it was best for me to move in with my Mom. I quit my job and decided to chill for awhile. Sit back and enjoy what GOD had put before us. A friend had mentioned going to the Cathedral of the Plains, Victoria, KS. My parents were both from that area and I hadn't been there since I was small. It sparked a desire to go see where they began. Well if Moma & I were going to take the trip, why not ask Aunt Lamie. And of course there was Bina, she too was from that area. So began the "Widows Gone Wild". Four widows out to prove that life does go on after death.
