Saw the obituary yesterday but missed the condolence offering. You know that I have supported you in prayer throughout these past years and I will continue to do so as you traverse this valley of sorrow. I pray you will take all the time you need to grieve and not be rushed. It is far better to take the needed time now than to pay the price down the road. I know that your Mother would be very pleased with how you have handled everything. Most of all I know that she is free of disease; pain; and being locked within herself. She will be waiting for you all when you join her at Heaven's Gate. May your walk with the LORD remain strong until that time. Be Blessed!!!!
