Pocon, I marvelled at my mother's strength during the last weeks of my father's life. She told me that they had spoken often about his impending death, what was wished for, and all that they needed to say to each other. Perhaps that is where your step-father's strength is coming from...he and your mother have done the same.
Your mother's memorial is on the same day that my family will celebrate my father's life. I will think of you that day. Maybe we will both look to the sky for laughing stars.
My thoughts are with you and your family.
