  3. My deepest sympathy and condolences to the family. I’m sooo sorry to hear about your mom. You and your family are in my prayers.

  4. To the family keep ur head up. No more pain & worries. She is happy and I kno her and Big Momma up there makin hogmaw plates.

  5. I am so sorry for your loss. Jesus said at John 11:25; ‘I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life.’ We have this comforting hope because Psalm 37: 29 and Isaiah 65:21-22 helps us see that there will be a restored earth. 1 Corinthians 15:12-16 tells us that to question the resurrection of loved ones equates to denying the resurrection of Jesus. Thus, we have the hope of seeing our loved ones again.
