today mom went to be with jesus:) i can just picture, she is dancing with jesus and delia!

today the last time i got to hold my moms hand, i didn’t want to let go

tn

she went peacefully, we sang, or should i say tried to… between tears, but i am thanking God he planned for me to be there with my sisters, we sang, beautiful savior, jesus loves me, what a friend we have in jesus, and amazing grace… and the doxology…we sang her into the glories of heaven. i was with her since thursday night, and am so blessed to have had this time with her.

no more suffering, no more pain… and just think the country will have memorial services every year on the day she went home:) 9-11 she truly was amazing

edit: 5 minutes before she died, she asked what day it was, we told her sunday and she said,” did you go to church?” even at 85, she was still making sure we went to church on sunday! we watched the lcms shut-in service on tv:)  she always said she wanted to die on a sunday:)

HE will say “well done my good and faithful servant”

i am going to miss her so much….. i want my mom!

    I’m so thankful you were able to be there…

    your mom was truly a one of a kind person.
    I enjoyed her and loved her very much.

    There is not a day that goes by that I don’t say the same thing…”I want my mom.”
