Kathy Ann, Frankie,and Kathy Sue, I know the next few days will seem like a blur, but in the days that follow you will have all of your memories to help ease some of the pain. Draw your strength and comfort from each other and the Lord that your mom loved and served for many years. He will get you through this time of sorrow. You also have the assurance that she will be waiting for you in Heaven. Friendship is a wonderful thing to have at a time like this, please feel like you can call me if you need an ear to listen. Having lost my mom 4 years ago I know the pain and lost that you are feeling. In your quiet times in the days ahead, it will amaze how you will be able feel the loving arms of God surrounding you and soothing you during your anxious moments. Thinking of you today and praying for comfort.
