My sympathy goes out to Donna, Ricky and their families. I visited my Aunt Terry with my two boys about seven years ago, and we had a delightful visit; she was cheerful; and talked happily about her children and first grandchild. She is now in heaven with my mom, who just recently passed away, so they can look down together on their families. This is a difficult time and be sure to allow yourself time to grieve as this is an important emotion to handle. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
My prayers are with you and your family! May His peace and strength be with you always!
To Donna Karr and Family:
In this season of sorrow, praying God will make His presence known to you in a special way. May you find comfort and strength in knowing that God is with you. He will never leave you nor forsake you. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
