U NTIL W E M EET The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalms 23:1-6 NIV And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Revelation 21:3-4 T O M Y G RANDMA S HIRL Thank you for being the best grandmother that anyone could ask for. We explored life together and encouraged each other to grow physically and spiritually. You modeled for me how to keep God first and I thank you for the mountains you climbed for me, those seen and unseen. I will always admire how you balanced your life so well, you served those around you so gracefully. Years ago, I asked you why you were so loving to me and you simply said that you wanted to be the grandmother that you wish you had. You have set the bar high and I promise to continue making you proud. Thank you for saving my life in so many ways and showing me unconditional love from the beginning to the end. Though my grief may never end, I understand that to grieve deeply means that I have loved deeply and for that type of love, I will gladly walk through my everlasting grief for you, my greatest love. -Your Favorite Granddaughter, Lohgan
