Gladell and Girls,I was sorry that we only talked briefly, but this is a good way to communicate with you. I wanted to tell you how pretty your mother looked and her yellow flowers were just beautiful. I visited with many of your family that I am aquainted with and met some of them I did not know before. Your family is lovely and I enjoyed talking to them.I thank God for you and your family–your mother did not live to stay in the nursing home. She was able to be with the Lord without experiencing pain and other negative things that comes with staying in a nursing home. Please let this help you to heal–this was a gift from God for your mother and you–no pain and no suffering. Be thankful and let that help your broken heart to heal.Death is hard, but there are so many things that we experience on earth that is so much more difficult. Death sets us free and gives us everlasting peace. God has work for the rest of us to do–he has the plan, so we must grieve but also pick up and continue to do God's work on earth.I pray for God to touch you with strength and peace. God Bless You, Diane Decatur, IL US
