Do not be anxious about anything but in everything through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Phil 4:6-7)
My thoughts and prayers are with you Jim, Lurina, Shelby and family. Alzheimers is a senseless disease, know that your mom is now at peace, no more suffering. Prayers will continue for you long after today.
