Claudette/Trudy, My prayers are with you and your family. May God comfort you and give you peace. We know when our loved one's have to leave we're going to miss them, but we know they're resting in the Father's arms and it is well. Every burden has been lifted, no suffering, no pain, no tears, there is no better place than in God's presence.

God's blessings continue to comfort you. I love you. Edith/Beedy
