Monticello, AR Monday, December 26, 2011 My prayers are with you Rosie and your family during this time of loss. I know your Mom's road was so hard these last years, but she is at peace now. She is whole, pain free and with your Dad in Heaven now. Keep that that close to your heart and Jesus will see you through this time of pain. I will lift up Nancy, Diane and all the grandchildren and family too. Your Mom was so blessed to have such a loving family. God broke the mold when he made you. I have thanked Him many times for making us life long friends. He knew we would need each other through the years. See you soon. Love Ya, Pam
