Consider just one of God's many expressions of care for us: You will call me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (Jeremiah 29:12) Yes, our Heavenly Father has always been willing to listen to those who humbly turn to him in prayer. May your heartfelt prayers to God bring you peace and comfort in your time of sorrow.

What a nice lady. One of the first people I met upon moving to the mountains in 1963. I visited her home every day as it was also the Kittredge Post Office. Edsel Thomson
