Dear Bill, Karen, Jared and all extended members of cousin "Sandy's" family.
I was greatly saddened this afternoon to learn of the loss of your mother (grandmother, great-grandmother) from "cousin" Jim. Losing one's Mom is very hard, cherish all the wonderful memories and think of the wonderful place where she is now with her Lord and Saviour, no more hurt, pain nor disabilities. My thoughts and prayers go out to you all as you mourn her passing.
Hope it is some comfort to you to know we are thinking of you up here in Canada and keeping you before the Lord in prayer at this time. As you gather together with family and friends to remember, celebrate and honour Sandy's life it will be an opportunity to make new memories as friends and relatives share their memories of her with you.
Cherish those good memories and allow yourselves time to grieve , remember, one day there will be great rejoicing as we all gather together on that distant shore with our Lord and Saviour. Remember you're not saying "good bye" or "farewell", actually it's "see you later".
I expect to be going to my son's home in Alabama in approximately one month and had hoped to once again have a short visit with both her and Jim on our way. The last time I saw them was April 10th, 2016 when my friend Jackie & I were returning from Alabama. The time before that was the time that you Bill and Jared went to lunch with us (Paul & I). In 2016 Paul was not well and was sent to hospital with blocked arteries before we made it back here to New Brunswick. So many changes, He has been gone over 2 years, I sold the house this past winter and have moved to a senior's apt in Sussex.
Sincerely;
Cousin, Louise
