Karen,
I am thinking and praying for you and your family at this hard time.
I will be with you in thought this evening at the Federated Church where we grew up together.
My father's funeral was at Bondurant and he had also been in hospice.
Just remember that what we learned about Heaven in the Federated Church is a reality. Heaven is a wonderful place. With Mom and Dad going to Heaven, I learned that we don't have to be sorry for "our loss". There is no loss. We know where they are.
"Because He lives...we can face tomorrow".
Linn
