Lynda & David, Praise the Lord Jesus has taken her out of her suffering. It is so hard to lose a mother and want to tell her or call her when something comes up that you would like to talk with her about, but knowing that she is safe with the Lord and you will see her again in a beautiful place makes a person feel better about that and I found talking to the Lord about those things helped and trusting in Him brought peace. What a wonderful daughter and son-in- law you both were. May God wrap His unfailing love around you and bring peace and comfort when you feel sad. We love you and know that God is always there.
