I know that you loved your mother, but God loved her more. She is in a better place now and there is no more pain. She has a new body and a new home. Be encouraged and faithful to God and He will carry you through.

The JFK Class of 1968 realize that as hard as it is for you today, we pray for God to comfort you and he will do just that if you allow him to be your comforter. Remember that God is still in control. Your Mother meant the world to a lot of people and through them you will always have great memories of her to share. God bless your entire family and we pray for your strength.

Deitra,

Know that God will sustain you in this dark hour. Earth has no sorrow that heaven can't heal. Absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Prayers and thoughts are with you.
