Mom

Well, this morning, Mom went Home to heaven. I have no doubt that she's dancing with Jesus and laughing as she no longer has to deal with muscular dystrophy or ovarian cancer or hearing aids. She will be greatly missed by many. We grieve, but have the hope of eternal life and the knowledge we will see her again. Praise the Lord!

Love this photo of Mom with my daughter Kisa from November 2008.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It is unfair that Moms go before we do. I love that you celebrated her in a photo with your daughter, it is beautiful.

I'm so sorry for your loss, but agree that she is in a better place.

Also, I agree with your assessment the B.S. is NOT for everyone! I was slightly shocked by the amount of under 18 kids there....

Awww... please accept my condolences. I know what it's like to lose a mother... and father. May God's peace sustain you as you look forward to that "blessed hope" of being reunited in heaven one day.

A poem that has comforted me over the years is this...

"To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die."

(((hugs)))

That is a very beautiful picture, I think the three of you share the same beautiful smile.

I think your mom must be looking down on you from above and she is there with you, forever.
