Dear Ted & Jean,It was with sadness that I read of your mom's passing but,also,with joy because you know she is with our Lord and your dad,together again.What comfort to know we will see them again.
When you spoke of your parents being in the Heavenly garden,I thought of my own parents.So often I think of mom in the flowers there & dad out in the" south 40."He also went Home 20+ years before mom.
God Bless you as He holds you in His care.
