The love of a Mother never ends through the rough and the best of times, Love of God and family never ends. You were welcomed into heaven with open arms and pain free.
Love you Momma

Sis, in our last conversation I left assured you had made complete peace with our God. You said you were ready to receive His grace and enter His heavenly kingdom. For this we give Him all praise and glory. You will be sadly missed by your daughters, family and friends. All the pain is gone and peace is yours forever. We love you.

Ms Sara was a dear friend and neighbor. She had a quick wit and loved to sit and talk about the way things are today, the good old days and the Kingdom to Come. God bless Ms Sara’s friends & family. We all miss her.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I pray God gives you the needed strength during this grievous time. (Isaiah 41:10)
DC says
So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the promise Jesus gives at John 5:28,29 “Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.”
