Crystal and family: It's never easy saying goodbye to those we love and cherish here on earth. I pray that your precious love one, will now rest peacefully, in God's loving embrace. Until that final trumpet sounds and God calls all of his children home. What a day of rejoicing that will be because each of you will see her again. Take comfort in knowing that and I pray that God wraps each of you in his loving arms.

Bryan, So sorry to hear of you mom's passing. I will share what has comforted me many times. "I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love." Leo Buscaglia My prayers go out to you and yours.
