IN MEMORY OF MOM

For so many years you have talked about the promised land and how God will take you there and lead you by the hand. Mother, you left us with so many memories and so many rivers of love. We all know you would be so happy when the gates of heaven opened in the heaven above for you. 

Mother, we love you with all our hearts. Thanks for giving us God and a special part of you.
