We don't have words to express what a loss one has of their beautiful mother of almost 102 years other than the wonderful memories and blessings that have come from her teachings, guidance of the Truths of God's Word that give us those guardrails for life's pathway. We are praying for comfort from Jehovah Shalom for now and days ahead but know you are celebrating her life as she had a personal relationship with her Savior, Jesus Christ and is now in HIS presence. Love and Prayers to all of you, Sherry, Mike and families. Ron and Sandy Hagel
