The Beginning.
Some things in life are constant, and when they are gone it is like losing a part of ourselves.
My sweet Mamur, my father's mother, passed away this afternoon. She is home now, leaving us with holes in our hearts.
If you knew her I am sure she touched you in some way. There are 4 children, 17 grandchildren, and 7 great-grandchildren...but the souls she ministered to through her love and compassion are countless.
Thank you to those of you who have supported us in this time of grieving. The funeral arrangements will be announced tomorrow.
I hope to be half the woman she was.
EDIT: Thanks to everyone for your support and prayers. The visitation will be this evening from 5-8 at Spry Funeral Home. Her funeral will be tomorrow afternoon at 2 at Jackson Way Baptist followed by the burial at Maple Hill.

i love you
I am very sorry to hear that, Joanna. I will keep you all in my prayers. May the Lord comfort you and be with you during this time (and I know He will, as He has promised). Let me know if there is anything else I can do.

"She is home now, leaving us with holes in our hearts." I think that has to be one of the best renderings of it all that I've ever read.
Joanna, I am so sorry for your loss.
Girl-
I am sorry for your loss and will keep you in my prayers. My new apt is in Plantation South on S Mem Pkwy behind the Rosie's.
Joanna, I'm very sorry for your loss. You're in my prayers.
Having gone through the same thing recently, I understand what a difficult yet uplifting homecoming this event can be. Please know that you and all of your family are in my prayers.
