My mother Alice had a collection of persimmon trees on her property. She had us boys pick the ripe persimmons so she could make us cookies. Today, those days are only memories. Her property is now sold. The trees are still there, but most importantly, Alice is now gone. She passed away last Sunday, July 24, at the age of 93. She now is in peace. Her cookies were wonderful but that was only one of the many great things she did for us. We remember her as a great mom. Ink and watercolor.Sunday, July 31, 2011

Very moving post. I lost my Mom way too early and I will never get over it. And we had persimmon trees too, growing up in Portugal.
Memories stirred. Thank you.
Thank you.
