Mom

It is with a heavy heart to announce the passing of my mom, Leonor Cahill. She passed peacefully this morning at 6:40 am with family by her side. 

She fought bravely for 18 months.  She was determined to do everything possible to try to beat this awful disease. In the end, all we wanted for her was to be in peace. I had the opportunity to have a conversation with her yesterday. I asked her if she was comfortable and she nodded there was no pain. I reassured her that we are all here for her and it’s OK. We will be OK.  I know she was more concerned about all of us and we were priority. That was just the way she was. Thoughtful, caring, beautiful human being who did not deserve to go through this. 

We will be celebrating her life with a Mass at Annunciation Catholic Church in Altamonte Springs. I don’t have the exact date but I will let everyone know here and on social media.

We do ask that instead of sending flowers, that you consider donating to two of the Pancreatic Cancer Charities:

    Revelation 21:4 King James Version (KJV)

    4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

  10. Thoughts and Prayers for your family. Lee was a special lady. We really bonded when she was diagnosed with this horrible disease, as I lost my dad 12 years ago to it. I would try to send her pictures to make her smile. I know she will be greatly missed. Dan and I will never forget the bank Christmas party with her. She kept wanting to exchange gifts with everyone ?. Know that God’s strength will get you through every day.

    Love Dan and Stacie Register
