I won't have to cross the Jordon alone
Jesus died all my sins to atone
When I come to that sea, he'll be waiting for me
I won't have to the cross the Jordan alone...
and Al will meet me at the eastern gates of heaven.
Isabelle enjoyed six grandchildren born to her children Julie, James and Paul.
We will all miss our mother, mother-in-law, nana, and "great-nana" but she is now where she lived her whole life for. She is now with her Saviour along with Al, Julie and Spence.
