Grandma, you are forever in our hearts as you rest eternally. Know that you are loved and shall forever be loved.
“So we fall asleep in Jesus. We have played long enough at the games of life, and at last, we feel the approach of death. We are tired out, and we lay our heads back on the bosom of Christ, and quietly fall asleep.”
—Henry Ward Beecher
