Your mother was a gentle, gracious lady, truly the kindest woman I have ever known. What a blessing that she lived long enough to see the birth of her first great-grandchild. She left behind a beautiful family, and a legacy of love. She was so proud of all of you, and always enjoyed talking about your accomplishments.
God called her home to be with family and friends who went before her, and she is in His arms. Take comfort in knowing that she waits for you, and you will see her again in Heaven.
