Denise Richards' Mom Dies of Cancer

16. RIP, Joni.

But..............Denise is going to exploit to heck out of this. I'm sure she'll call the paps for the perfect shots of her and the girls grieving.

17. I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom many years ago, just a few days before Thanksgiving. It hurts, it hurts like hell.

May God bless you, and help you through this.

20. Losing a parent is never easy, but losing them around the holidays makes it much worse. Regardless of her battles with Charlie, and who's right or who's wrong, my heart goes out to Denise and her family during this sad time.

22. Very sorry for her loss. I lost my own mother to lung cancer that had spread to her bones.

Cancer is a horrible monster to fight, for patient and caregivers, so her family is in my prayers. May her mom rest in peace.

23. Why do so many people, when giving condolences for others, always have to mention the loss of someone in their family as well? This is about Denise's mother and not about your loss. I read a book on proper etiquette recently pertaining to death, and in that book it states not to bring up your losses as then you are just bringing attention to yourself and not to that specific individual. I personally have never brought up my losses when consoling another individual; that's in very poor taste.

25. Suzie, I don't think anyone is trying to bring attention to themselves. They are sympathizing and simply saying "hey, I know what you're going through because I've been there too". I don't think there's anything wrong with that, in fact it's quite helpful. When my father passed I sought out people who had also lost a parent because they had been there and knew what I was going through. I was thankful when people would share their experiences with me because I didn't feel so alone, and they were also the least judgemental. I was able to ask them questions that somoene who hadn't lost a parent would not have been able to answer.

Condolences to the Richards family.

29. ..P.S..# 26 SD...well put, after the passing of loved ones, sharing and communicating with others who have gone thru the experience is encouraged and theraputic for many.

30. Poor Denise.

Between her constant bickering with Sheen, the divorce, and now this? It's not wonder she hasn't went complete and total "Britney" over everything. She gets my respect for being a class act about everything, and keeping it together. Especially for the sake of her children.

My condolences.
