I’m so sorry for your loss. Your grandmother, father and mother were part of my life for a long time. I loved going into the Hallmark store and chatting with your mom. You were fortunate to have her for so many years. I pray the Lord will bring you all comfort knowing that she is in His loving arms and reunited with your father.
Sorry for your loss. May it comfort you to know that your Mom is now with your Dad. All of you have your own memories of your Mom to hold dear in your hearts forever. Always enjoyed seeing her in the Hallmark store, she always had time to stop and chat no matter how busy she was. May God bless all of you.
To all the Ralon family,
I am so sorry for your loss. She was a very special person that I have known for as long as I can remember. I know she was greeted in Heaven by our Heavenly Father, your dad, and her other family members that went before her. Let there be peace in your hearts knowing that.
