KAY, MY PRAYERS WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
Dear Mary, Kay and Carolyn, my heart goes out to you and your families during this time. I know your hearts are full as you let go of your mother. Having practically grown up in your home, I recall so many fond memories of how she went about her home and work. She was hard-working and tireless in her efforts both at home and at work. She was gentle and soft spoken, yet firm and compassionate. Her girls came first and she put everyone else's needs above her own. An angel who set such a beautiful example of love and grace for all that knew her. How blessed you have been to share so many good and long years together. You will get to share stories of her life with your children. grandchildren and great-grandchildren for years to come, and by doing so her spirit will live in you forever!
My love to you all,
Anne
Dear Family and Friends,
I'm sorry for your loss. I just wanted to leave you with an encouraging scripture that has helped me deal with the loss of a loved one. It is found in the Bible Book of Revelation 21:4, it reads, " And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.â€
Mary, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time. May God wrap His arms around you and comfort you. Heaven just got sweeter for you!
Carolyn, Kay and family I am sorry to see you have lost your mom. I know how much it hurts to loose a parent for I have lost both of mine. There is not a day goes by that I do not miss them But remember some day you will see her again as will I my parents. Reach out to The Lord for He is still in the comforting business! My prayers are with you.
Love In Christ,
