Kim and Family
Take comfort in knowing that the battle is over for your mom she fought a good fight she reaps the rewards promised by an all wise god life eternal in a mansion not made by man. You can cherish forever memories that outlast the pain and grief your mom is now anchored in the lord. We shared your struggles and we know all could be done was done. Be strong and be of good courage. Be not afraid neither be dismayed for the lord your God is with you where ever you go (Joshua1:9)Always hold on to the hands of the comforter for he is with you now in your time of sorrow and always. May you and your family find the kindness of friends to comfort you, compassion to warm and sustain you and the unfailing love of Jesus to bring peace to your Hearts. Iam praying for you and your family,
