Mother was a loving person who was good to everyone and had a heart as big as the world oftentimes misunderstood. She never judged anyone and hardly met a stranger. Mother had a complicated life and went down some bad roads. But, later in life she found God and made a change in her life. She turned her life completely over to him and everyone could tell. She loved her family her friends her neighbors and her Cat Yota. She often quoted Romans 8:28, and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Also, she loved and lived Psalms 91, He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in him will I trust. Surely, he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day. Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation. There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

We will miss mother and know that she is finally at peace. Love you and can’t wait to see you again. If she could say anything we feel it would be go in peace, don’t cry live for God and, love God and Love others.
