The time has finally passed.

My grandmother is gone. Thank you granny for everything.
Thank you for living your life for Jesus.
Thank you for living your life to teach your 4 children and 15 grandchildren about the love of Christ and about right and wrong.
Thank you for being a shining example to the world of God's love and plan for those he calls.

Yesterday I heard a story of a time when you were in the hospital and very sick. You were on lots of medication which had you 'out of it', but when a nurse swore using the name of Jesus, you said Please don't insult the name of Jesus. He is the one in whom all my hope lies.

Angie Elizabeth Waggoner, I love that story because that wasn't a show. That was who you were inside and out.

I can only hope to live life the way you lived it, knowing God was guiding all your steps.

I praise the Lord that at around 1:30 this morning, you heard the words

Matthew 25:21"His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

Psalm 116:15
Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.

Bless you and your whole family at this time.
