My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. All the memories of our Gloria Dei Bethesda days have coming rushing back to me. All of the moms gathering in the Fellowhship hall for all the grade school event, cheering us all on in our sports, listening to us sing at Christmas Eve Services. So many wonderful memories of much easier times. May our Lord grant you comfort as you grieve your loss and bring a smile to your face as you cherish the memories of your mom.
