Dear Albert and Luanna, Grace and Marion,
My thoughts and prayers are with you as you say goodbye to Alma. You will no doubt be rejoicing that she has been set free, really free! We just said goodbye to Roy a couple of weeks ago and they’re likely celebrating together like we can’t even imagine! Seeing so many who have gone ahead and most glorious of all, Jesus Himself!
It’s so wonderful to know that those who leave us are with the Lord. So much to look forward to for the rest of us!
I won’t be able to be at the funeral but I would if it were possible. I will be remembering you and your families….Blessings, Edith
