Wow Kathy, what a fabulous email! And a fabulous post! Thank you so much for sharing ❤️
I’ve had a rough couple of days and your post was so beautiful and brings me comfort. That’s how Mum was, at peace and accepting of God’s will. She’s now there in God’s care and will be there when I eventually arrive there too. Along with the 23rd psalm, Amazing grace and comforting prayers and words from her pastor, this l was one of the passages from her service. It also brings me great comfort.

"When I am gone, release me. Let me go.
I have so many things to see and do.
You mustn't tie yourself to me with tears.
Be happy that we had so many beautiful years.
I gave to you my love. You can only guess
How much you gave to me in happiness.
I thank you for the love you each have shown,
But now it's time I traveled on alone.
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must.
Then let your grief be comforted by trust.
It's only for a while that we must part,
So bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, for life goes on.
So if you need me, call and I will come.
Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near.
And if you listen with your heart,
You'll hear all my love around you soft and clear.
And then, when you must come this way alone,
I'll greet you with a smile and say welcome home..."
❤️❤️❤️
