He gathers the people like lambs in His arms. Isaiah 40:11 A prayer to remember you, precious child. A prayer to remember your loving family and those you touched in your lifetime. You continue to touch our lives even in your passing. You are forever in our hearts and minds.   We cherish the memories and gifts you gave us, sweet girl. Your radiant smile, your zest for life, your tremendous intelligence and work ethic, your love for celebrations and family. You excelled at so many things. Loria, may we all take comfort in knowing you no longer suffer. That you are embraced in God’s love, peace and mercy. That with faith, trust and grace, we too may share in His everlasting kingdom.   We will be reunited. May we all take time to notice the simple beauty of a sunflower and the many miracles and wonders of our everyday life.   Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection not in books alone, but in every leaf in Springtime … Martin Luther   written by Mary Allen Dial for Susan in memory of her daughter, Loria Susan Caulder   Thank you, Mary. You are truly a dear friend.
