To The Family, I want to express my deepest sympathy for your loss. I also want to share the comfort of John 5:28,29 which assures us of the hope that those who have fallen asleep in death will receive a "resurrection" back to life. Life on an earth restored to a beautiful paradise. Psalms 37:11 says, "The meek ones themselves will possess the earth, and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace." While we await that wonderful time please find comfort in these promises.

She was the grandmother of my children and my mother in law for so many years, and she will be missed. She always supported me and was there to lend a helping hand at times too numerous to even remember. My memories of MiMi are fond ones and I will cherish the times spent with her. Life and circumstances change our relationships but wonderful memories of the past will always remain. I love you, MiMi.
