As our loved ones leave this earth, know that they were not made for this earth, but made to endure it. For we all belong in the kingdom of Heaven.
So sorry to read of your mom/ Shannon and grandma she was such a sweet lady! Prayers
My prayers are with you
You are missed. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. You are a part of my growing up and even as I grew up and had Kids we talked every so often, out of the blues, about life and such. You were fun, crazy and a blast to be around. I looked up to you. I miss you. I’ll always love you and remember you and keep you in my heart. RIP my Aunt Nancy. We will see one another again. Watch Over Me from up there. (really. I’m serious. I need some divine intervention. I’m a wreck) R.I.P. Nancy.😇
