Mom-mom,
Happy Birthday and we surely felt your love yesterday. Pop woke up blessed by the angels and Tommy was an angel. We prayed, played music and spent time with Carol, Kim, and the girls and grandchildren. Every part of the day Was blessed. Say hello Jimmy and Nana. Come visit Pop, Carol, and Tom in a special way and let them know it is you. Lastly, kiss baby Jesus for us. Glorify, bless, adore and praise the mighty throne of God and continue to ask him to bless us and make his face to shine upon
us with blessings.
P.S Tom wants to know if a bear .....in the woods?
Love Tom and Brenda

We continue to pray for you and ask that you pray for each of us. We look for any sign that you may offer us. Tommy is knocking and seeking. Please take our request to the heavenly God and ask for love to continue to grow in his name. We miss you and continue to look up so we can see and feel you in our hearts, thoughts, dreams, and prayers.

Sorry to hear of your loss. I believe this is the Virginia Fix that knew my mother way back in late 60's, early 70's. We attended church together in the Reading area and later together at a church in Reamstown. Ginny, as we called her by name, could play piano under the anointing of the Spirit of God like no one. She is thought of fondly as one of my "childhood memory" persons. I know she loved her family and would always ask us to pray for you all. I was just ten years old way back then. My own mother, who dearly enjoyed your mother's company and love for the Lord, had passed away in 1976. May the Lord bring comfort to your hearts at this time.

Dear Mom-Mom,
My life changed when I met you and you invited me into your loving family. We talked and you refused any torrential down pour of anxieties in my life. You promised to pray for me and very soon after that I dreamed the anxiety was gone. This left an impact on my life that the good always out does the bad.
Since that time, your son, my husband and your daughter Carol have always displayed a kindness in sharing you and pop. Both your children sharing you and your time displays the love you taught them. Patience and kindness last a life time if only it is modeled and taught. This you have done well.
Now you see the Lord and your loved ones who have gone before you - tell Jimmy we love him and see him soon too. Your love and faithfulness is a sign you have high places in Heaven and are singing with the angels.
Like deer that thirst for water, our souls thirst for you.

My Dearest Grandmother,
You are and always will be that special person in my life that guided me to become the woman I am. As I held your hand and you left this world for the next, I felt the true meaning of love and how lucky I am to have you in my life.
Love Always,
