Anne,

I know this has been an extremely difficult time and that the loss of your mom will not be easy to endure; however I know that your strength will get you through.

I also know that there is magic in the memory of your mom that will affect the rest of your life and that no lapse of time can lessen the good memories you have. Distance, time, and circumstances may have separated you in the pass but the love you showed her in her time of need will always remain.

Remember that the most beautiful things in life cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart. Try not to bow your head in sadness; instead keep your head up high and gaze into heaven and know that your precious mom will be looking down on you on this day and all the days of your life. She will always be the angel following you through life.

Ann,
My prayers are with you as you mourn the loss of your mom. I lost my mom about 4 years ago at about the same age. Even though we know that our seniors have paid their dues and need rest, it is still hard for us to let go, because we are human and we love so much the company of those who cared for us. Take your time to mourn and process the grief of parting. We'll keep you in our prayers .
