Very Sad News

We have had some very sad news. David's mother Virginia passed away last night. She had been in the hospital for a week and we knew the end was near. Still it is a hard thing to loose a beloved mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, and great grandmother. She will be sorely missed, but we have the assurance that she is now in Glory with Jesus. She no longer is in any pain.

My heart breaks to see the pain my husband and children are going through. I wish I could make it all better for them, but unfortunately I can't. I am also sad because Nathaniel will never know his sweet grandma. She was looking forward to meeting him.

The house seems very quiet and still tonight. It will be hard to get used to not having her here. We have kept her bedroom door closed today because it is just too hard to not see her sitting in her chair drinking her coffee and reading her book.

We are trying to remember that although we are sad, she is rejoicing because she is with her Saviour.

Blessings,
Melissa
