She will be missed by her family and friends, but we rejoice in the victory that she now has won through the fulfillment of her faith in Jesus Christ. May God grant her heavenly peace and us her gracious comfort. "And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come with singing to Zion, everlasting joy shall be upon their heads, they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away." Isaiah 51:11 No one hears the door that opens So gently comes the call. Like loosened leaves of roses One by one our loved ones fall. Cheer up loved ones, do not mourn. You can see her no more, But when God shall call you home May you meet on Caanan's shore.
