MJ, So sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. You and I know she is now in a better place. The good "Lord" knows when it is the best time to take us out of this wicked world we live in. He promised us he has prepared a place for us to come and spend eternity with him. What a joy your mother must have had in knowing she would be able to spend eternity with him one day. May she rest in peace. I pray you and the family can find some peace and comfort in knowing "He" has made it possible to see her again one day. God Bless you and the family.
