Anthony,Britta and Family, So very sorry about your Mom. Wish we could be there for you guys but know you're in our thoughts and prayers. This was sent to us when my mother passed away and I'd like to share it with you: He Only Takes the Best God saw she was getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around her and whispered "Come with me." With tear-filled eyes we watched her suffer and fade away. Although we loved her deeply, we could not make her stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands put to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best. -Author Unknown
