On April 1, 2009 at 4:45 am, David’s mother went to be with the Lord.
Mom left much behind: her pain; her wheelchair; her medications; her glasses, false teeth and her trouble with getting around on two often swollen legs; her many medical bills, 3 trips per week to dialysis and frequent visits to the doctor; her back cramps that resulted from a recent fall as well as her broken leg from her most recent fall. Momma is all better now. She left that all behind to go see the One who heals the broken hearted and sets the captive free.
One of the first thoughts that came to me was to think that my momma has seen Jesus. She also got to see her dad who went to be with the Lord back in 1972. She also got to see her mother in a new light for Grandma Markel had an accident in early life that affected her entire body. Dad reminded me that she also got to meet the son she never knew when she had a miscarriage.
Now, they are all walking streets of gold and who knows what else! Heaven is sounding sweeter all the time!
The funeral was Christ honoring and was able to be viewed via livestream by family and friends who could not attend. Mom was interred at Gethsemene Memorial Gardens on the grounds of Trinity Baptist Church in Jacksonville, Florida.
