I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s comforting to know that we have a Heavenly Father who knows our inner-most struggles to come to terms with our loss. I recently lost a brother, a sister-in-law and most recently a best friend so I can sympathize with your pain. I found a comforting scripture at 2 Corithians 1:3-4 which speaks of Jehovah as the God of all comfort who comforts us in all of our trials. I hope this brings you the same comfort as it has me.

So sorry to hear of her passing. May the Lord be with you all during this time of sadness.
Chanda and family, I am so sorry to read of your moms passing! This has been a very hard year for you and your boys Chanda!
It is never a good time to lose a parent no matter how old we or they are. However, you each were very BLESSED to have such a wonderful lady who loved each of you so much for as long as you did. You will have so many wonderful memories of her to help carry you through this very difficult time.
Know my thoughts and prayers are with each of you!
