To Mark and the Long family,
Words cannot express the loss you are experiencing. It is hard to say goodbye to a loved one, especially hard when it is someone like Mrs Long. She was a WONDERFUL woman, loved by all. As one of her many students, she always has words of encouragement or words just to make you laugh. She has gone home to be with Our Father and as much as she loves her family and friends, she would not want to come back. Ask God for strength during this time of bereavement and remember we WILL see her again someday.
