Jaynie - I don't believe there are any words that can ease the pain of loosing a loved one, especially a mother. Just know that you and your family are being thought of during this difficult time. You'll always remember the loving touch of your mothers hand and that will help heal your broken heart. I'm sorry for your loss dear.
God Bless
Brenda

Dear Janie & family.

Please accept my deepest regards in the loss of your mother. She was definitely a great lady who was firm when she needed to be but always in a soft-handed manner. I will always remember her laugh and funny comments when we girls were being silly. I have you all in my prayers during this difficult time. God bless you all.
