Rev. 21:4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away. Mom I miss you more with each passing day. I'm grateful for the way you raised me, you did an awesome job teaching me to have a great work ethic and how to stand on my own two feet! I know you were tired and ready to be with Jesus, but I was not ready to say goodbye. I believe you are in the presence of our precious Savior.
