Jane Ellen, March 10, 2008

I said goodbye to my mom of 12 years. She went to be with Jesus today after a 2 1/2 year fight with cancer. She has had amazing faith, courage and strength.

She has loved with passion. She has fought with courage. She has suffered but not complained. Her faith is amazing. She is in the arms of her true love now. She isn't suffering anymore. She's at peace. I don't know what my life will be like without her. She's been an incredible mom and friend. She has always loved me as if I were one of her own. She will be so missed.

I've been 'accused' of being just like her. That is a compliment I will always treasure. If only I were. She's an inspiration to me as a woman of deep faith and loyalty. She was a strong woman. She has endured much suffering and hardship. She had an amazing smile and enthusiasm for life. She loved Ali & Joey so much. She was a wonderful gramma, always loving on those kids. Always instilling in them the word of God. Always pointing me back to Jesus...She has left a legacy of unwaivering faith.

My heart is broken because of this loss. My heart is broken that i didn't have that one last chance to say goodbye. I will always treasure our last hug a month ago. I will always cherish the last words we shared with each other, and i will let her go. I love you, mom.
