Jim, your mother was a sweet lady who was very strong. You were blessed to have her in your life for a lot of years. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Randy, Peggy and Andy
Jim,
Dedra and I are so sorry for your loss. Although we should be rejoicing as another saint joins brothers and sisters in Heaven, the loss of a dear loved one, especially one as close as a mother, can be very difficult.
I will be praying for you to feel the peace and comfort of the Lord's presence. I know He will be there with you.
God bless you and Sharon.
