So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4"With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.
Praying for you all! I always loved Floy and will remember her always! I know it is so hard to lose a loved one but knowing they are rejoicing with our Lord helps the pain. I’m afraid I can’t make the service as I’ve been off work already so much with Larry’s mom passing, but I’ll be thinking if you all the next few days! Love to you all!
