Dear Carol: I had four funerals the week of your Mom’s funeral. Needless to say, I was pretty drained by the end of the week, but your Mom’s celebration was one of two that actually helped me make it through the other ones. What an honor it is to speak words of comfort and perspective for a life lived that honored God. I look forward to meeting Margaret in our forever home.
