We are sorry to hear of your Mom's death. Both of us now having to said goodbye to both our parents, know the sense of loss you all feel...I have likened it to being an orphan.
One of the great comforts we are assured of is they are now in the loving arms of Jesus. Our most sincere sympathy and many hugs are sent your way.
Praying for God's comfort and peace

"The death of a mother is the first sorrow wept without her." Author unknown
“Pain and suffering have come into your life, but remember pain, sorrow, suffering are but the kiss of Jesus - a sign that you have come so close to Him that He can kiss you.” Mother Teresa
The death of a mother creates a pain so strong, you might feel that you will not survive, but you will. The pain is the price of the love you have shared. Death is never a singular event. In addition to the actual death, there is the death of all hopes, dreams and expectations about the future.
I am sorry for your loss. I know that your deep faith will be a source of strength during this time. If there is anything I can do to help please let me know.
