My newfound “Byrd Family” member, Debbie Jackson Byrd posted a message on Facebook for those with Mothers that are in heaven for this Christmas holiday. It was so heartfelt because I have dear friends who will not have their mothers around for Christmas (Patty and Vera Lou) and I am sure there are others who are experiencing this grief. I also think of my friends, Marlene Kara, Diane Prati, Rich Filchock and so many others who have lost a spouse or love one and grieve during the holidays. And a special comforting message for my cousin, Vanessa, who lost a son this year.
I hope Debbie doesn’t mind that I took her message and revised it for all of you who have a loved one who is in heaven for the holiday season. May God bring you comfort knowing that your love is in good care.
