Stacey,
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers as you endure what is sure to be one of the most difficult times of your life to date. my prayer for you is that GOD will cradle you ever so gently in his arms and hold you there until you come to a place in your lives where you can remember the laughter that only a child knows, the love that only a mother has and know that she will always be alive and well living deep within your hearts. I leave you with a poem I find comforting. I know it will not help but it says it all.
Just think of her as resting
From the sorrow and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days or years
Think how she must be wishing
That we could know today
How nothing but our sadness
Can really pass away
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched
For nothing loved is ever lost
And she was loved so much.

Randy, Stacey and family, Remember the good times with your mom and let all of her love for you fill your hearts each and every day. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
