God has picked another beautful rose from His garden from our family. Take comfort in knowing that you have been blessed in taking care of this precious flower for Him. The flower was in full bloom with a wonderful aroma that has become pleasing to our Lord and is now in His presence along with the other precious plants that our family took care of while awaiting His picking. It was an honor. To God be the Glory. Love you and Be Blessed.
