Drucie

The day you were dreading has come. Our prayers are with you and your family. I will share a couple of verses from "Safely Home" that helped me through.

"I am now in Heaven, dear ones, Oh so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty in this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last."
