Your mother will always be with you in the lessons she gave, the life she shared, and the love she showed. May all your beautiful memories of her comfort you and bring you peace.

Deneen:
It is with a sincere heart that I extend condolences to you and your family.

Sometimes when God calls his children home, he doesn't give the family any warning. Don't question him just rest assured that he knows what he is doing.

Ms. Edwards' death may have been sudden for the family but not for God.

Allow him to comfort you during this time.
