Heaven is not a resting place,
Where men may sleep out an
Eternity; There they rest not day
nor night, but their work is their
rest and continual recreation,
and toil and weariness have no
place there. They rest there in
God, who is the center of their
souls. Here they find the
completion or satisfaction of all
their desires, having the full
enjoyment of God and
uniterrupted communion
with him.
~Thomas Boston, 1676-1732

I still think about her all the time. Every time I pull out one of her dishes to eat on, or wear her pearl earrings. I still think about all the wonderful, fun times we shared together...how much she loved being a grandmother and great-grandmother. Rachel still talks about her often. I wish she was still here. I'm reminded of her when I look at my baby boy. I miss you, Gramma! Love you.

Thank you Ange. You brought tears to my eyes. She was indeed a simple and wonderful Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grand Mother. I too miss her. Love Dad
