Even though it is hard to give up a loved one, take comfort in knowing she feels no pain today and would not come back even if she could. You took great care of her and made her last days as pleasant as you possibly could. She knew you took care of her out of love and she left loving you for it. May your hearts feel peace in that knowledge.

Dear Family and friends:
Please be advised that I have moved. I received a call the other day from God the cheif architect. He informed me that my mansion was ready. On September 30th,2009., he told me to go ahead and inform my loved ones of my new address. My mansion is furnished and what a sight it is to behold!
It is located on an estate behind the pearly gates. The streets are paved with gold and everyday is Sunday. I can walk and talk with our father without worry or care. I have lived at Lake Monticello and my new mansion is much more glorious compared to any other place I lived.
There is peace, love, joy and happiness here. No more pain and sorrow, only sweet serenity. I will dine at my Father's table and sing with heavenly choir. I have my own designers who have fit me with my own white robe and wings.
I could go on and on and tell you about my new mansion, but I am going to pray that you will get to move here someday and see it yourself. Now before I go, let me remind you, I will be looking for you to send me many prayers to:
Helen Bryant
