As most of you know Mary went to be with Jesus on February 19th. I am sure she heard "well done thou good and faitful servant, enter in..." The last words she was able to speak to me was a couple of days before she passed away when I was laying down next to her. She point at something and looked at me and said, "Jesus loves me and Jesus loves you." Now she is dancing with the angels and singing and talking as we all knew Mary did. She fought a good fight until the last minute, She never lost sight that God was still on the Throne and in control. I don't understand why it had to be this way but God's way are higher than mine and someday I will understand. Her Memorial service was just what Mary would have wanted. There is not enought space here to thank all the people that did everything they could for us. I feel like we are the most blessed family ever with all the love and support we have recieved. Mary impacted a lot of lives in her 52 years, most of them serving the Lord and telling people about Jesus. Even on her last day she looked up and smiled the best she could. I will remember her laugh and her smile forever. I always said Mary was the best thing God blessed me with in my life. As much as I miss her I know I will see her again.

Thank you to everyone that has been there, not only for us but with us.

God Bless
Bob
