Liz, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your children during this difficult time. You know I'll be here if you need a friend. “Love is stronger than death even though it can't stop death from happening, but no matter how hard death tries it can't separate people from love. It can't take away our memories either. In the end, life is stronger than death.”

She
was the kindest woman on the earth, now we have her looking over us
from heaven with the Lord and Papaw. That makes me feel so good. I miss
her, never got to spend enough time with her. The world is missing
something special, but heaven got it. It was an honor being her
grand-daughter. I love her.
