You will forever be in my heart. I am so fortunate to have had you as my mother. You are now resting "safe in His arms", Jesus won't let you fall. You now have all those things that I prayed for each time I was with you: Peace, Joy, Comfort, Healing, Love, Restoration, Faith, Grace, Mercy, and Time....Eternally in Eternity with God, the Father, Jesus, is Son, and the Holy Spirit. Momma, Loving you is like food to my soul!

To my Cousins,
When I was in church a few Sunday's ago, I was thinking of Aunt Mary and the following poem came to me and I would like to share it with you.
Now when she met her savior
She met Him with a smile
He healed her wounded spirit
And owned her as His child
Around the throne of grace
He appointed her soul a place
She's on the battle field for the Lord.
Your Cousin Kenneth Washington

To the Shaw Family,
We will always remember Aunt Mary -- always smiling and giving us excellent words of wisdom. She has gone to heaven and as a believer in Jesus Christ, we will see her one day in that glorious place that the Lord has prepared for us all. Her memories will always be in our hearts.

Dear Sheryl, Please accept my condolences for the loss of your Mother. Mary was one of the sweetest ladies I have ever. She always seemed to have a smile every time she came with your Dad to the VA. She will be sadly missed by those who loved her but she is now with our Lord.

I love you and know the loving memories you have of your mother will be with you forever, and will prayerfully give you comfort knowing she is resting with her
Savior.
