Karen, Kelly, Sean and Anne,
Your Mom left you knowing she gave you everything you needed in this life.
She showed you how to be a caring and loving partner. After 50 years of marriage, she still shared such devotion, love and friendship with her husband. Her life, and heart, were intertwined with his.
Her family obviously meant the world to her. I can still see her face light up with joy upon seeing one of her grandchildren. She wanted what was best for her children (and wasn't afraid to speak her mind about it!). She gave you the meaning of family.... unity, strength, forgiveness, love, joy, laughter, and togetherness.
Her faith and belief in God never faltered, and she passed that faith onto all of you, so that you would find comfort in prayers and strength in God's love.
Your Mom is among the angels and always close by. Remember how she lived her life, as that is her gift to you. Live your best life in memory of her, and know that she is never far, and forever in your heart.
"Praise the LORD, my soul, and forget not all his benefits - who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion." ~ Psalms 103:2-4
