Entering into eternal rest is a blessing and a celebration of life. Absent from the body means to be present with the Lord. Toshema rest in peace knowing that your mother Ms. NeeNee Fordham loved you from the day she gave birth to you. Satisfied in heart that you was able to spend time with her days before you went into eternal rest. Scripture says we can hide truths from each other and not from God, whom knows the truth and it all. Be blessed your a identical picture of your mother, Ms....
