Music & Memories
Broadcast for Sunday, May 10, 2026
Covering the deaths from May 10-16, 2026

 
Good morning and welcome to Music & Memories. 
 
This is Linda Sue, and I am the grief specialist at Patton-Schad Funeral Home. It is my pleasure to bring you this week’s program. This program is our way of reaching out to help families deal with those difficult days surrounding the death anniversary of a loved one. 
 
Today we celebrate our mother's here on earth and in heaven! Our mothers are our personal lifeline to life! Their devotion and unconditional love neutered us to become the very person we are today. As sunshine and rain are to nature's life growth, our mother's love and wisdom have contributed to our very soul! Celebrating our mothers who are in heaven can be done in many ways! A family get-together featuring her favorite foods, lighting a candle in honor of your mother, visiting her grave with her favorite foods and drink to celebrate her, and as always; sharing those stories, tears and laughter of your mother with those who love you! Happy Mother's Day to you all!
