It is with a sad but thankful heart that I tell you that my mother passed away peacefully today. I am grateful her suffering is over, and grateful that she is with my Dad again, along with many other loved ones that have gone before. I am especially grateful for a merciful Father in Heaven who allowed her to stay here on earth long enough for me to arrive home and spend several hours with her before her passing. I recognize it as a blessing and tender mercy.
I have truly been blessed with peace over the past few weeks. I am keenly aware, and have even been surprised myself at the comfort and peace I felt during this process. I recognize the Lord’s hand in blessing us. It is true. The Lord takes care of His missionaries.
I am grateful for the knowledge of eternal families. I am grateful for my parent’s temple marriage nearly 67 years ago. I am grateful to know that I will see them again and be with them eternally.
Thank you for your love and prayers through this difficult month. I am eternally grateful for each of you and the love and friendships we share.
Funeral will be Saturday.
Love to all,
Ron and Marie
