Nancy and Family,
May God's strength and blessing continue to be upon during this difficult time. Hold on to the memories and remember the good times. When the grief seems unbearable, read Psalm 27, it will surely give you peace. Know that you cared for your grandmother with all of your heart and also remember, God is just a prayer away.
Yours in His service,
Tangy H. Roseborough
