Shelly,You have my great sympathy. You may realize this already, but your mom will still be with you. And memory has a way of refining and purifying itself to the core of a departed person s being. These things are part of the miracle of life the silver lining, you know. We all admire Mr. Hall for what he has done so willingly and generously for your mother, and I wish him the very best in his adjustment to living alone. God bless you all,Sue
Michelle, I was surprised and sad to hear that your mother had passed. Lisa was very upset when she called me. It took her a moment to gain her composure and then she told me what had happened. We talked further for a couple of minutes and then I asked her to let me know if I can do anything. She seems to be a very nice young lady. You must be proud of her. I am sorry that I will not be able to attend your mother's service. I do want you to know how saddened I was to get that phone call. I know that right now is painful for all of you and that only time will heal the hurt. I do have personal experience in this area having lost all my parents and grandparents. At a time like this, no words are adequate. All I can say is that I hurt for you and that if you want to talk, or if I can do anything within my power, I will be here for you. All my love,Flynn

Harold Wayne,Thank you so much for remembering me at this time. My heart is saddened by the news of Letha's death, but memories go back to those years when I first met your family. From that time, I continue to consider all of you as special friends. Both Ray and Letha always made me feel special, and I wish that I could be there this weekend. I know that Letha overcame, or learned to live with, many illnesses during these last years. I rejoice with you in knowing that Letha really has gone home to be with her Lord.My prayers are with each of you during these days. Please give my special condolences to Ray. May God's special strength and comfort be very real in these days.In His Care,JoOur Lord said in John 14:3:"And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going."Your mom certainly knew the Way, Jesus Christ, to God's heaven.
Michelle, I am SO sorry to hear about the passing of your Mother. Having lost a parent recently myself, I can only offer up my shoulder, my ears, my heart to you. As you said, she is in a much better place, and able to look over you much better now. The pain is tremendous, I know, and again, I'm just so sorry you're having to go through this. Of course your family is in our prayers.We're here if you need anything – don't hesitate to call. Love,Jinelle, Lucky & LaDonna
Dear Shelly,I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mom was such a powerhouse of strength andcourage when we were young. I know she has passed that trait onto you. Herlife was an example to us all for Christian giving, love, and forgivness. Mythroughts and prayers are with you.Carolyn
Shelly, I am so sorry to hear about your mom. I've lost both of my parents and it's not an easy thing to go through. It does get easier over time, and I have so many good memories to remember them by. My thoughts are with you. Love ya Marty
As I sit at work today I can't help but think about my grandmother. It has only been a month since we lost this precious woman. I began to search for quotes for comfort and I came across one that I have decided to share with others also looking for comfort in our time of grieving. "You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived. You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all she's left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see her, or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember her only that she is gone, or you can cherish her memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back. Or you can do what she'd want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on."– David HarkinsI think these words say exactly what Nanny would want. She would want us to remember everything about her. Especially the parts of her that make us who we are. Live, love, and have no regrets.
