Thank you to Thedacare at Home Hospice and especially granddaughter Rachel Kluball for making it possible for mom to die peacefully at home.

Mom, thank you for always being there for us and being the glue that held us all together. We will miss you so much. It hurts so much because you were so good to us. Until we meet again – Lori and Margie

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside still waters; He restores my soul. He leads me in right paths For His Name's sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I 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 goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life. And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord My whole life long.
Psalm 23:1-6
