Much loved Great Grandma of Kaiah, Ezekiel, Kora and Baby Butterfly. The angels gathered near your side, so very close to you. For they knew the pain and suffering that you were going through. We thought about so many things as we held tightly to your hands. Oh how we wished that you were string and happy once again. But your eyes were looking homeward to the place beyond the sky where Jesus held His outstretched arms, it was time to say goodbye. We struggled with our selfish thoughts, for we wanted you to stay, so we could walk and talk again like we did... just yesterday... but Jesus knew the answer and we knew you loved Him so, so we gave in to your life's greatest gift; the gift of letting go... you left us way to early Mama, how will we cope without you. Our hearts are broken... God has you in His keeping, we have you always in our hearts. Rest in love beautiful, til we meet again...
