I am so sorry to hear of the passing of one beautiful lady, Zoe Porter, whom I am thankful, I had a number of opportunities to meet in White Rock, BC. Zoe also visited my house, met my daughters, and my Father who also passed last year at age 93 yrs. My vision of Zoe is prior to her illness. My plan was to take her for lunch at the Globe Restaurant while visiting Ontario next year. My niece lives in Hornings Mills. But Zoe has now moved on to a greater place - one more bright Star in the Heavens.
Thank you Tim for letting me know. My condolences are with you and your family on this sad passing of your dear Mother and Sister, two very brave people. A huge loss in one year.

Tim,
My prayers have been with you and your family throughout this difficult time of loss. May the Spirit walk with you and your family to help ease your sorrows and provide the strength required at this time. Remember, this is not the end - rather it is the beginning of a new and wonderful life for your Mom.

John 14:1-3
"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am."

God Bless you all.
