Not what do you want to be remembered for.
Be honest, be realistic.
When gone, what do you think those closest to you will remember the most about you?

For myself- Being a bit of an activist for causes, being able to motivate people, being candid , down to earth and a creative mom.

Well a close and dear friend has told me a couple of times
that she has always admired in me that I'm able to laugh and
smile in the face of adversity. Having had more than my share
of hard or difficult times, I have managed to see myself through with my sense of humor. I love to laugh and I hate
verbal fights. I need peace and tranquilty, now more than ever.
And as I get older, I seem to really need the peace. So she'd
say, I had a big heart, because I do, and she's bound to say,
that I loved a good laugh, and a good joke. I think she'd have
the more favorable things to say LOL.

After I'm dead and gone the stories my children will tell about me won't be too sugar sweet but they will make them smile. They will hoot about my quick temper and the way I could always laugh at myself when I messed up. They will laugh and cry and remember their plain-spoken, loving, dependable, tough old mother.
If my husband outlives me then he will have the best memories. We've known each other since we were kids and have had lots of good times together. He had best remember my promise to haunt him if he takes up with a floozy who's mean to my kids and grand-kids! LOL
I don't think anyone outside of my family and few close friends will remember me at all when I'm gone.

I will be remembered by my family for wholistic health methods, my witty responses and youthful nature, the brain tumor that didn't get the best of me, and my committment to my family.

I suppose it would depend on who you asked. I asked my husband and he said I'd be remembered as a loving wife & mother who is smart and quick witted and who loves animals. He also said I'm a pistol and just a little different-I didn't ask him to explain these. lol

my unique personality that makes me stand out and be different to where people have tried to change me, but couldn't. Also, probably for my efforts in promoting tolerance and acceptance to those that are different.

I was jokester and loved doing stuff even if I screwed it up...I was helpful and giving and sometimes too strict.
