Deceased Mother's Wedding Ring

Heather , on March 11, 2013 at 4:43 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 8

My mom died of cancer. My dad said he wanted me to have her ring. I was devastated that he gave it to my younger brother who already gave it to his now wife. I am hurt neither talked to me first about it. She has already altered it

    Wow that was really inconsiderate especially if he had already promised it to you. I have my mom's ring and I cant imagine if my dad had given it to someone else.

    Thank you. I think my brother thought it would be a nice gesture, but he never spoke to me about it. I can't imagine anyone accepting it either.

    Did he propose to her withit? I guess it doesn't matter since she has it. I would be so hurt. I'm so sorry. Did she have anything else you might be able to cherish just as much?

    Oh I am so sorry. Smiley sad My mom also died, also of cancer. I wear her engagement ring on a chain on my neck almost every day, and it will be the only jewelry on my neck the day of the wedding. My sister took my mom's wedding band for the same purpose, so we each have one of her rings. If your brother took the engagement ring, maybe you can have the wedding band? Or something that your mom wore every day that meant a lot to her? I know it's not the same, but at least she'll still be part of your wedding jewelry then.
