Weeping may endure for a night, but joy does come in the morning.

I remember growing up with your mother and she treated me just like I was one of hers. My mother and her were very good friends and I can remember them singing together in the church choir when we were children.

I love her as much as you all do and my heart will always hold special memories of her.

To each of you, always remember that

God is the comforter and I can say from experience that Jesus will come and heal your broken heart, just ask him. We Love you All
