Where is CarGar today?
Crap…now I’m all teary!
Here’s the quote from Cargar:
“The Mother’s Day before my mother died, we were at a garden center together, and I bought her a hanging plant that she admired. She was very annoyed w ith me, but I refused to let her pay me back. A few months after my mother died, I was wearing my winter coat, which happened to have been at her house on Mother’s Day weekend, and I open the front pocket and there I discover 2 crumpled $5 bills. My mother had found a way to send me home with the $10 for the plant without my knowing about it – those $5 bills were the last thing she ever gave me, and they’re still in my coat pocket.
