Mom was a woman of God, always giving, always caring and always loving. “Mothers are one of the greatest gifts that God’s Grace provides”

Family gatherings of any kind have been one of Mom’s greatest joys – and now she is at the grandest of all “Family Reunions” in heaven! She will be missed greatly here but we rejoice that one day we will all be part of this reunion!!!

What a beautiful day for the Lord to come again— What a beautiful day to take his children home— How I long to see his face, & touch his nail scarred hand…..
