my mom

This past week would have been my mother's 90th birthday. She passed away in 2005. Each year at this time I think of her and try to imagine what she might be like now had she not fallen terminally ill and died at the age of 82.

In honor of her birthday, I thought I'd share a few pictures I made of her over the years. Anita didn't particularly like having her picture taken, but she was usually a good sport around me simply because she understood that photography was my passion.
