We were saddened to hear the news of my Aunt, Mammy Pam’s passing. We (myself, Noah, & Matthew) are so grateful for her unselfish love & kindness to our family. We especially remember the time when she came to California to help to take care of Noah for 3 months when he was a baby (19 years ago). She will be remembered fondly.
She ran a good race & has finished the course. What a gift she brought to our lives…we appreciate her for it.
Jesus said, “I am the resurrection. I am life. Everyone who believes in me will have life, even if they die. And everyone who lives and believes in me will never really die.”
