Dear Diane,
I am sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. Even though we have our loved one a long time we are still not ready to let them go, but when we know they are with Jesus we have that blessed hope of seeing them again. May the love of Jesus be your comfort at this time and in the weeks ahead. I will be praying for you.
Love in Christ,
Barbara
