Our mother was the best.  She loved us all unconditionally.  She cried for and with us when we were broken, helped us up and gave us strength to face another day.  We all had a place in her heart.

The quiet of her room is where she found her place to talk to God, she was reserved and gentle, the sweetest momma.  This last year, she lost her sight and her hearing and could not walk any longer.  Her world became closed and insular.  This had an impact on her freedom and her spirit.

Today she sits at the right hand of God, under the tree of life, with her family around her.  She left a path for us to follow…home.  We take comfort in knowing this.
