Dear Family’
How do I say something to comfort you at this time? I know how much you love her. I know how much you need her.I guess God decided He needed her and you need to come to Him with all your hurts and share your joys with Him also.
You have a close family and I know Rachel is the very best friend anyone could want. You all will be fine for your Mom taught you love and as the Bible says ‘and the greatest one of these is love’
When you feel low just reach out and feel Gods and your Moms love.
Jean
