Sorry for your loss Bill. Rejoicing in Heaven's gain. "Honor thy Father and Mother so your days may be long on this earth". She must have indeed Honored them . 102 years! What a blessing . Yet I'm sure as most of it finds you wishing for one more day . God Bless.

Hi Bill,

This coming Sunday May 15th, I lost my mother 3 years ago. I miss her dearly and more than anyone else I ever lost.

Bill, like you said about your mother, my mother went to be with King Jesus her LORD and SAVIOR. I would not ask her back for nothing, because she is at peace and enjoy her eternity with GOD.

GOD's WORD says that the things that GOD has prepared for those who love and serve HIM, we can't even imagine them, because it has not entered our mind and hearts. SO Praise GOD! He knows best and blessed is the death of HIS saints.

May GOD give you HIS peace and love!

Bill, great Mothers are a gift from God. It is hard to see our loved ones go but be assured you will see her again. Your Mom is never far away, place your hand over your heart, feel her love, for that is where you carry her.

Blessings to you and your family

Bill,
How blessed your mother must have felt to be part of your life for so many years - the joy of seeing her son as a husband and a father, to share your joyous times, and to be able to comfort you and your family in times of sorrow.

You know she wishes she could comfort you now. God has blessed you, Bill and will help you through these changing times.

We love you!
Donna and Tommy
