My mom has passed away.
cjwood:
dear gena,
i am so sorry to hear that your momma passed away. i have thought of you often since the conference as even then you awaited the dreaded phone call from your sister about your momma. as others on this forum have said, take heart in knowing the truth of God's scriptures regarding the sleep which your mother now sleeps. my daddy also died from alzheimers disease complications and i agree it is a terrible terrible disease. my family's consolation was that his suffering on this earth was finished. i too did not know God's Truth about death when my daddy died, but i know it now thanks be to God through His servant ray smith. lean on Him during the days ahead and lean also on your lovely jerry. take comfort in knowing the Truth and in knowing that jerry shares your Knowledge. i pray that you and your sisters will grow closer during this time, as i know you have a concern about this. i will keep you and jerry and your family in my prayers. please let us on the forum know how you are doing.
love in Him,
claudia

Thank you for your kind words, all of you. Your love is felt for sure.
Just got back and I did mention a few things on Beloved's birthday post for me.
It was actually a nice service. My mom even looked like my mom!! A neighbor is a retired United Methodist pastor and she gave the service. Very generic, hopeful, and uplifting. (No 'she's up there fishing' or anything like that!). I was able to tell a few relatives that she is actually quite dead but will rise at the great resurrection.
My sister was concerned that I thought my mom was going to hell. So I assured her that I DID NOT think that, and that we would all be together again at the Great White Throne. I sort of left it at that. All in all I am glad it is over but it was good to see relatives and reminescing (sp?) about old times. One aunt wants to know more, so I am sending her some of Ray's papers.
Again, thank you for your prayers and love. It is so good to be back home and on the forum!!

Gena,
So happy it went so well.
I just love watching God's protection for us when we have to deal with these things.
Bless you, Lin
