Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Renee, I know this time comes with mixed emotions; glad that your Mama is now at peace and free from any earthy pain, but sad because this chapter of life has ended. But remember with every ending there is a new beginning and hang onto that thought. I know your Mama was very fortunate to have you and Harold nearby and I’m sure that gave her comfort. Bless you as you cherish your memories.
As we make our way on this journey of life, death is our final stop. We are over come with grief. Even the perfect man, Jesus Christ, Gave way to tears. So greatly grieved was he over the death of his friend, Lazarous. (John 1135) Jesus said I am the resurrection & the life. (John 1125) What a wonderful gift we have been givin, to have the hope of seening our loved ones once again.
