What a wonderful women she was till the very end! She did not have an easy life back then when she started her family we all know that . She had 8 kids and lost a little girl. She did her best for her family with what she had. The best days of my life as a child is spending time with her when everyone else was in school. I guess I had her all to myself! :-)) Mom loved us all the same she had a big heart even in the end she loved us no matter what she gave us her best even in dying she never complain about anything. She did more for us then what we can imagine she always wanted her family to stay united and that was what dad wanted to! There is not one of us that can accomplish what she did in her life she was not selfish at all. All her qualities seemed to have fully bloomed so gracefully as she aged! Wow mom I now I have already told her all that in her last years of her life. I don't think I can match up your inner beauty mom you were beautiful inside out but your love and your understanding and forgiveness will be mostly remembered by your daughter Diane! The Lord has blessed my mom with 89 years on this earth He knew everything about her. The Bible tell us He knew her in her mother's womb he saw her and declared she was beautifully created in His image. He knew everything that she would go through in her life and that He would help her until the end. My mom believed in God and before she moved to Sturgeon Falls she shared something very special. She said early in the morning she would go and sit by the furnace in the back of the house and she would pray . She invited The Lord in her life and she would pray with her hand lifted up to The Lord and she would sense so much peace. iget up before your dad so I could go and spend time in prayers with The Lord. The Lord has promised to never leave nor forsake us He said He will be there until the end. I thank God for her life!
