  6. Dear Sharon,Samantha and Family,
    I know you will miss your Mom, because there is no one like a Mother. But take hope and know there is one more soul awaiting us on the other side, another prayer warrior cheering us on and she is so happy and healthy we would not even ask her to return. But we can go there. So be encouraged even though your heart is heavy and you feel the loss, Jesus appreciates your sacrifice and He always knows best. Love, Rita
