Proverbs 19:21 Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.
Even though my pain is great, I am greatful that HE brought you home and you are no longer suffering.
I will miss you here, but I will live on with the strength and faith that you shared with each of us during your treatments.
I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN! Your Sister.
