Dear Friends:
I am saddened to learn of the passing of your mother, sister, and grandmother. One woman can be many things to different people, and I know that however Mrs. Jackson was related to you, she was loved. I recall the devotion of Cheryl and the sisterly concern shown by her sisters. You have cared for Mrs. Jackson in every way and now God has her in His kingdom. Therefore, there is comfort to know that her journey has resolved in a joyous ending. Know that I will keep you in prayer as you continue your journeys. God bless each of you and grant unto you His peace, comfort and understanding at this time.
With sympathy,
Janie
