I'll never forget walking into work at jcp, being greeted by Alma's cheerful face. A simple hello, or a funny joke, my day didnt begin before saying hi. So for you my friend, I hope you know that we will all miss you dearly and I will smile, knowing you are too.
"Someone new has entered
our eternal home above
the heavenly gate has opened wide
to welcome you with love.
We cannot help the tears that fall,
our hearts need time to grieve
when earthly life has ended
and a loved one has to leave.
Yet even in the saddest time
we know our savior lives
and we can trust completly
in the promise that he gives.
One day a glad reunion with the lord
our loved ones they will wait,
and welcome us in with joy
and no more tears, beyond the gate."

God Bless you and your family, you will be forever missed.

Dear Friend,

I share great sadness today that you are gone from my presence but not from my heart. I have so many great memories to share between us and conversations to remember. God reminded me on this day that I lent my child to you for the this time to change lives now her work is done and she shall rejoice with me.

God Bless her family and all the hearts affected
