Wait, what? Your mother hits a milestone most don't, but you didn't club her about the face and knees with brass knuckles for being Catholic? Have you no loyalty to kitten barbacuing or eating babies? As a former Catholic myself, I find your lack of faith in Darth Vader's "Dark Side" disturbing.
(The following is serious now.) Moms are the best, and I wish my mom was still around. Cherish the time you have with loved ones. I know she loved the adulation and appreciation you gave her.
