~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She never had the chance to raise her children,never saw any of her grandchildren. At the age of 38 God took her to a better place than where she was. She lived a very sad and hard life. We that are the children,grandchildren,great-grandchildren,the brothers and sisters all live with the knowledge that one day we too will cross over! The day I see my grandmothers face,feel her embrace will be a happy day for me. My heart aches when I see the sadness in my mothers eyes as she talks about not being with her mother after age two. I believe that she is with her children now...finally after all she went through. I believe she was there to welcome each and every one of them as they crossed over! Just as she will me when it is my time to go!
Grandma Mollie..I love you..for giving me my family!!
