RIP Grandma Bertha.
No more sickness and pain. I remember the song you used to sing in church. One day at a time. Yes we have to take one day at a time everyday.
Your grand daughter

To Charles and Family,

I feel your pain and your sorrow. I will miss your mom. She had a kind and gentle manner. She always treated me with the utmost sweetness. I can remember when I was a little girl visiting you with dad. She made me feel special and wanted. I know she will bust Heaven wide open singing "They that wait upon the Lord"...They shall mount upon the wings of an eagle" That's how I will remember her. Singing in God's Gospel Choir with a timid smile upon her face. The last time I spent with her was at your reception. I remember the smile on her face as she watched you and Gail dance. That's the way to remember a kind lady like Ms. Bert. Don't be sad because she is in the best of care where there is no sicknes, only peace and joy. I am here for you as always with open arms and a comforting spirit.

With much love to you all,
Your Sister,

Peg
