My heart is saddened by your loss. Please accept my deepest condolence. Mrs. Webb was such a sweet and enjoyable person. She will be missed dearly by her family and friends. May God bless the family with peace and comfort in the days and weeks ahead.
Tender memories will fill your mind in the coming weeks and months. The pain of the loss will take time to ease and the sweet memories will give you peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Your mom had a wonderful smile. That is what I remember the most about her even way back in the 60′ and 70’s.
You have my deepest sympathy in the loss of your mother. Cherish your memories and may they bring a smile to your faces and comfort to your hearts. God has promised to wipe away our tears and pain, trust in him and he will help you heal. Revelation 213-5
I am so sorry that you have to endure this pain of separation. But the Good News is it is only temporary; for those who believe in Christ will be joined with Him forever nevermore to be separated again. And Jesus is there, preparing that place for His believers and it will be something far more better than we could ever imagine. So thankful that our Heavenly Father has given us Hope. Thinking and praying for you all, knowing He will sustain you with His Peace and Comfort. Hugs.
