"Jodie's grandma" Olive was always a very special person to visit and talk with. She was very uplifting and extremely caring and will be missed. I have many great memories of her. I am very sorry for your loss.

If You Could See Where I Have Gone
If you could see where I have gone the beauty of this place and how it feels to know you’re home to see the Saviour’s face. To wake in peace and know no fear just joy beyond compare. While still on earth you miss me, yet you wouldn’t want me there, if you could see where I have gone!
If you could see where I have gone had made the trip with me, you would know I didn’t travel alone, the Saviour came with me. When I awoke He was by my side with outstretched hands saying, “Hurry » you are going home to a grand and Glorious land. Don’t worry over those you love for I am with them too and don’t you know with you at Home they long to be here too!”
If you could see the things I’ve seen and the things that I’ve been shown you’d never know another tear or ever feel alone. You would marvel at the care of God His hand on every life and realize he really cares and bears with us each strife. He weeps when one is lost, His heart is filled with pain, but oh the joy when I came home, no moving day again.
If you could see where I have gone, could stay awhile with me, could share the things that God has made to grace eternity. But no you could not bear to leave once heaven’s joy you had known, it would be too hard to walk earth’s paths once heaven you had known.
If you could see where I have gone, (you know we will meet some day) and though parted now, I’m just away. I thank you family, I thank you Church and neighbors one and all for living for the Lord as He taught you to love Him, trust Him and His word. And now that I am home with Him secure in every way, I’m waiting here at Heaven’s door to greet you some happy day.
To the best friend and mother a person could have.
Love you forever!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

That card table in heaven is getting pretty darn full. I've lost my best friend, the one who unfailingly supported me, my mom. I am sad. Goodnight mumzie.

My grandmother-no words describe how wonderful of a woman she was. I cannot believe she is gone - there is a big whole in my heart. Grandpa will take good care of her.
