I would have a weekly call with my parents, typically every Sunday at 5pm, I would call my parents. If Mom picked up we would talk for a minimum of 15 minutes and talk about her favorite topics - Golf, Dogs and what is the latest dog food she is feeding her dogs ! She loved to talk about these subjects in great length and with a passion that you just had to love ! I would try and bring up topics of interest to me - Cooking, Entertaining, What she was planning to eat that night and I'd received less the enthusiastic answers on these topics ! At the 15-20 minute mark of our conversation, I'd hear my father yell - Sal - please let me talk !! At that point, I'd say goodbye to Mom until next Sunday !
I will miss these calls but her memory will live on forever in my heart.
Good Bye, I Love You MOM !
