My Friend, My Mom

Mom took her last breaths on July 19, 2012.  She was at home, surrounded by love, both family and friends.  She will no longer have to suffer.  We will all miss her and time will not change that.  On July 25 we had a memorial service at Sabbath Grace Fellowship.  It was a real tribute to Mom.  Jack did a fantastic job on the life sketch. There was a slide show ( a tribute to mom's life) Terry Pooler did the Homily and Noel Allen (from Hospice) sang "Great is thy Faithfulness"  He sang that when she was doing "ok" and she loved it.  About 150 people attended.  125 signed the quest book and there were several that did not.  Everyone that new mom loved her. After the Memorial people stayed and talked for about an hour.  There is some comfort in knowing just how many people cared.  Mom was good people and will be remembered.  Kendra flew back to Denver on Saturday July 28 and Holly, Rob, Nick and Karly drove home on Sunday, the 29trh.  At times like this it would be a very lonely place without Family and Friends.
