Nor count compartment of the floors'
But mount to paradise
By the stairway of surprise".

If we could say any words of comfort, they would be: On this side of Heaven, through tears of sorrow, we're saying, "She's gone." But in Heaven, friends and loved ones, through tears of joy, are saying, "She's here ... she's finally here!" Though you will miss your mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, friend, you are much richer for having the privilege of loving her. Through faith in Jesus Christ, you will see her again in Heaven. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love, Grace and Don
