Dear Mom:
Your wake and funeral (May 20-21) were a celebration of your life. How wonderful it was to hear friends and family talk about the many ways you helped and encouraged them through the years. And you looked like the princess that you were. We are sharing the photos and memories with our out-of-state family members and friends. I'll be checking this guest book to see if any friends make an entry for us to read. Our next face-to-face meeting with you will be in Heaven, where all the believers among our family and friends will have a great reunion as we rejoice in our Lord! Much love from your middle daughter, Elaine
