Mom all the wild and crazy things we did the wisdom that was shared, listening to my whining. You were a vital part of who I am today, I truly enjoyed our morning coffee times you said they were our special times. You said our time was getting shorter, I was thinking earthly time, but you knew..... I know that we will have an eternity together. Say hi to Mom & Dad and Tommy. Tell them I'm one day closer. I love you Mom.
So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away".
Sis, my heart is aching and broken because you are not here on earth with me. But, a part is also rejoicing that you are in Heaven with the angels, pain free. You did a caring and loving thing for mankind by donating your body to science. I have inner peace knowing that I will see you again someday. I love you so much. Your sister, Lou
So sorry for your loss.
