Returntoglory Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I just wanted to put up a post in memory of my Mom who passed away yesterday. She has been a Bills Fan since their inception into the NFL. She loved wearing her Bills gear and had her favorite players over the years. Bentley. Talley. and most recently Cole Beasley. When I was in the USAF stationed in Germany throughout the 80's, Mom would send me tapes of all the Bills games. I would either watch them in my dorm room or in the day room with my fellow airman or a few years later when we lived in our home on the economy, we would have a Big Bills watch party, Wings included. But what I will miss the most is making Pizza and wings and running them across the street to Mom before or during the game, and getting and giving phone calls throughout the game when Buffalo would score or just to share a comment or two about a specific play. I love you Mom ❤️ 14 69 2 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaw66 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I'm sorry to hear about your loss. You will have those great memories for the rest of your life, and every Sunday in the fall you'll think of her fondly. In many ways, including through the Bills, she will live on. And when the Bills win the Super Bowl, if you're like me, you'll think of her and you'll cry. My best wishes to you and your family. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Very sorry for your loss. You make an excellent point about the Bills bringing family together, even if they are not blood. The Bills are a vehicle to make us closer as families. RIP. EDIT: I took my 93 year old mom to see a house 30 minutes away that my nieces are buying. She’s been pretty much locked down for a year, which is precious in your 90’s with not many left. I’m thrilled that I got to do this with her today because I know that at some point not too far down the road this will be something I could only wish for. The OP’s loss should be a message to all of us. Edited March 5, 2021 by Augie 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkeerie Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 My deepest condolences at the loss of your beloved Mom. Losing your Mom is always especially hard. I lost my own 3 years ago. One of our favorite things to do together was to watch football. The Bills especially. We loved watching college football more, though. Saturdays were wall to wall games. She love Notre Dame...I think because of Regis Philbin...so we always watched them play. I had my teams...UB, Penn State, Central Michigan and Air Force...but we always turned to games that were close in the waning moments. If the games went into OT, all the better. We called it bonus football. Cherish your memories of your Mom. She.now will have front row seats from her skybox in heaven. God Bless you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seasons1992 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 R.I.P. to mom. The memories shall last forever. My parents just stopped by my place; dad had on his Bills hat and I'm rocking the sweats. Bills talk never gets old with the parents, that's for sure. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twist_to_open Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Very sorry for your loss, I hope you and the rest of your family can find peace during a time like this. I lost my Dad Dec 20th, and one of my favorite stories from him was when him and my grandfather would tote an old metal Coleman cooler to the Rockplie to watch the Bills play.

Draconator Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) I lost my Dad last month, one of my favorite memories was going to a playoff game against Miami, and seeing Marino loosing his ***** with his teammates on the sideline. It was something like 21-3 in the 3rd quarter. Very sorry for the loss of your Mom and I send my condolences to you and your family.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 My mom passed away over the summer. Huge Bills fan, only because of me. I'm a rare breed that grew up loving the Bills all on my own. When I started college and moved out she would call me during games just to ask me if I knew the Bills were on. Lol, even though she always knew I was watching. We didn't have a lot to celebrate regarding the Bills during my teen years and 20's so this was a bitter sweet season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
