Dear Family and Friends, As each new season of the year comes, with its own joys and beauty, and then passes onto the next, with its beauty and renewed hope, so life goes too. The new light green shoots that spring forth from the earth and the trees, in the spring, give us the hope of new beginnings. Warm lazy days of summer, with a deep green canopy of shade, give us time to reflect on how awesome God’s creation is. Fall, and the brightly colored leaves that die and silently flutter to the ground, shows us that part of life does wane and end. And when winter comes with its glorious white cover as the earth rests, we are reminded of the glorious final place of rest for our souls. And so as we reflect on the changing seasons, we see the promise that as we pass from the beauty and joy of our earthly life, we go on to the peace, joy and majesty of our eternal life. It is my wish that you find today a reason to celebrate, to smile through your tears. Do not cry tears for me, for I am full of Joy and with my Lord and Savior in a place where there is no pain, no sadness, no suffering. I have not left you, for I shall be with you every day, in your hearts and in your thoughts. When you experience the seasons, remember me…remember always the many good times we have shared together, and the tough times too, for they are the ones that make us turn to the Lord for His strength. My earthly life was very good to me, God was my strength, my shield, and my defender. He will be your strength and comfort too, if you let Him. If you have not or cannot remember ever asking Jesus to come into your heart, I hope you will do so today, for I love you with an everlasting love, and want to see you again, when you join me in this wonderful, majestic, awesome place with our Lord. There are no words capable of expressing the gratitude I have for your love, friendship and support. That love and support made a very real difference in my life and now I hope my life’s end on earth will give you a renewed hope in Gods perfect plans for your life. Jeanne Randall 1945-2022 Jeans sustaining verse thru her illnesses has been Isaiah 40:31 Yet those who wait for the Lord Will gain new strength They will mount up with wings like eagles They will run and not get tired They will walk and not become weary “How Great Thou Art’ “Precious Lord, Take My Hand” I’M FREE Don’t grieve for me for now I’m free. I’m following the path God laid for me. I took his hand when I heard him call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day. To laugh, to live, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I’ve found my peace at the close of the day. If parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss. Ah yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I’ve savored much. Dear Family and Friends Please do not sing sad songs for me, Forget your grief and fears, For I am in a perfect place, Away from pain and tears. I am far away from hunger, And hurt and want and price, I have a place in Heaven, With the Master at my side. My life on earth was very good, As earthly lives can go, But paradise is so much more Than anyone can know. My heart is filled with happiness, And sweet rejoicing, too. To walk with God is perfect peace, A joy forever new.
