The loss of a mom, spouse, or friend is always hard to comprehend for those that are left behind as we grieve our loved one. We can rejoice in the fact that she has passed on to a better place and she will enjoy eternal peace and happiness. A bittersweet feeling envelops us, but in time, our healing will begin, but her memory will always remain in a special place in all our hearts forever.
