Brenda and family,
I know this is a very sad time for you but just remember that your Mom is rejoicing with her Lord and Savior in her wonderful new home! I'm sure you are glad that after your retirement you had a lot more time to spend with her. My mom is 87 and is still very independent and still drives to church and to family get-to-gethers. However, I take her to the doctor and to get groceries and we always go out to eat so I'm spending more time with her since I retired. We will always have those loving memories of time spent with our Mom's. I will be praying for you.
Love, Shirley
