So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4
(3) "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. (4)
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".

Dear family,
It brings both great sadness and unspeakable joy to learn that Frances is no longer with us, but is with her Lord. She was a sweet, special, remarkable lady, and a great friend to us and so many at Peasant Grove. We grieve with you at her passing, but wait now with greater anticipation for that certain reunion we will have with her in the clouds when we meet the Lord in the air.
May His mighty arms embrace and uplift you.

Your mother(part mine too) was so very kind, sweet and loving. Her knowledge of the Bible was amazing! I knew if there was ever a question about a scripture, she could help me with the answer.
She will be missed by many, but she is in Heaven rejoicing with those that have gone before her and with her Lord and Savior! Prayers for each of you. Love you all
