Lavinia -

I am so saddened to hear this. We all were praying for you and your mom. Perhaps GOD's way of answering our prayers was by taking taking her home with him and freeing your mom of the pain and suffering that she was going through. While I know that you'll never get over this loss, I will pray that you will find comfort in knowing that your mom is no longer suffering. My sincerest condolences.

                   Safely Home

            I am home in heaven, dear ones;
            Oh so happy and so bright!
            There is perfect joy and beauty
            In this everlasting light.

                All the pain and grief is over,
            Every restless tossing passed;
            I am now at peace forever,
            Safely home in heaven at last.

            Did you wonder how I so calmly
            Trod the valley of the shade?
            Oh, but Jesus' love illumined
            Every dark and fearful glade.

            And he came himself to meet me
            In that way so hard to tread;
            And with Jesus' arm to lean on,
            Could I have one doubt or dread?

            Then you must not grieve so sorely,
            For I love you dearly still;
            Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
            Pray to trust our Father's will.

            There is work still waiting for you,
            So you must not idly stand;
            Do it now, while life remains,
            You shall rest in Jesus' land.

                When that work is all completed,
            He will gently call you home;
            Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
            Oh, the joy to see you come!
