rest in peace

Today, a sweet friend will be laid to rest.  In a way, it will be a celebration.  A life well lived for others - given in service to her family, friends, and Lord.  Mrs. Minton will be missed by her family, but there is a peace that they all know and feel that their mom/grandma will be in heaven.  The suffering of this life has ended and her mind and body are now at peace.  There is also a comfort in that.  Praise the Lord for the example of a life lived out in completion to him. It truly is a glorious thing. Blessings.
