The Final Sunset from Worthing Pier

Sunset from Worthing Pier. Lampposts on the Pier and the Worthing Big Wheel are visible

My mum passed away on 3 September. Mum, my brother Chris and I had spent a wonderful weekend in Worthing, and this was the sunset from Worthing Pier that we enjoyed on the last evening.

We drove home on the Monday and Mum passed away that night. Her big, beautiful heart finally stopped working. We are all devastated.

Hold those you love close to you, tell them you love them, cherish them. Live each day to the full and don't take a minute for granted. Rebuild those bridges you've burned. Life is too short and too fragile.

I had some posts prepared but beyond that, I don't know when I'll return. I'm busy for the next several weeks clearing out Mum's house. I would like to post about that final weekend in Worthing, if only to keep the good memories alive.

  1. I am so sorry to hear of your loss xx

    The sky is a gift from your mum as moved on.

    I had a similar sky when my dad passed on it gave me some comfort that he was still with me.

  2. I remember when my own beautiful mum passed away. Even though we all know it is inevitable, the sense of loss never really goes away. Hopefully the photos and stories will keep your mother's memories alive.

  4. Oh, Mandy. Words are never adequate in such a time as this. May the "moanings and groanings" of collective hearts everywhere be the solace for your heart and soul, especially when all the clearing out is finally done. My deepest condolences!

  7. Oh Mandy I am so sorry to read this sad news. I had wondered why you were not posting, not that I have got to catching up with all your posts. It was lovely that you were able to spend some time with her right before the end though. Hugs xx
