I lost my beloved mom recently, also quite suddenly, after she was struck by an excruciating gall bladder attack. Reading about your mom's last week in hospice was very helpful for me. I could have described my mom--her strength, wisdom, selflessness--in some of the ways you did yours. But what I really want you to know is that I knew your mom! I had the privilege of being in the Boston Biographers Group with her... we shared that experience for a decade or longer--really, up until her untimely death. She was so warm, smart, and generous. Her enthusiasm for her project, her subject, was so great. Her work in remembering the noble priest Louis Favre was/is important. I hope someone picks up her work and sees it through to publication.
Marian St. Onge herself was truly one of the greats.
She sounds like a beautiful being who enjoyed life to the fullest. What a blessing The Universe has bestowed upon you both: Each Other.

With my sincere, albeit very late, condolences,
