Oh, how I miss our sweet, dear Nan. I cherish the memory of our years in Bible study together, our wonderful fellowship sitting together around a table, learning about Jesus, sharing our lives, growing in faith. I celebrate that Nan is even now in the presence of Jesus, free from pain. God bless her family and cover them in peace and fill their hearts with good and happy memories. Love you, sweet Nan.
