Dear Heavenly Father-
You know the pain in our hearts that we are feeling for the loss of our loved one.
In our hearts we know she is in a better place and she has joined you and all the other loved ones we have lost over the years.
But the pain still hurts so much and the tears we cry are for us because we know until my time comes to join you and our loved ones. We will be missing her so much just wishing we could touch her again or if we could just hear her voice just one more time. We want so much to hang on to the flesh and that's what we will be missing.
And Father we know your not a taker but a receiver so Father please help us understand why she had to leave this earth. Father open our hearts to help ease our pain the way you opened your arms when you received Virginia Berry Wood into Heaven. I love you Sis. Written by: Deana Livingston

"A gentle wind blew cross the land
Reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came
Calling out a mother's name.

Left behind, the children's tears
Loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent
And now to God a mother's sent.

On angel's wings, a heavenly flight
The journey home, towards the light
To those who weep, a life is gone
But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn."
