A tribute to our treasured Momma & Granny Sweety♥
This is a post that is difficult for me to write...
Recently, We just lost my beloved second mother & friend, My son Murphy, his granny, who we loved dearly, who passed away on Aug 11. 2017, We will miss her soo much!
She was one special lady and the loss of her is felt deeply by many, even though she lived a full life.  For the past few months, she bravely fought illness due to cancer. Seeing Momma , Granny suffer in those last hours was extremely difficult for us all.
The love of a Momma, Granny is unique. God must have given " Sweety" to us to liven up our lives, to make our lives more complete, to make us well rounded and better human beings. She played a big part in my son "BINGO" childhood ( she fondly name him that, way before he came into this world) and I can remember so many times sitting in her kitchen and tasting the dishes, she prepare with special love. She taught me a lot about love and the meaning of family.. She has never been just ‘my sons granny’, but my guardian, my second mother, my friend and my inspiration. 
Still, we can’t believe our lovely Sweety has gone home to be with the Lord . We will miss our Sweety sooo much, but her spirit and strength, lives on in each of us and in the lives that she touched. She lives on in me and in all those who have been touched by the love, strength, conviction, wisdom, and beauty of her soul.
We Love you Momma aka Sweety– You truly were a special, special woman! You may have passed on, but your memories would always live on within us. Thank you for your sacrifices, your care and concern, your love and everything that you have done for my son Murphy B. Campbell. Jr & me. Wherever you are, I know you are in a much better place. I will be forever grateful and thankful that you are my sons‘ granny’. 
Rest in Peace Momma/ Granny...we will never forget you and 
we will always love you forever... ~Harriett & Murphy♥

My condolences to the Franks families. I'm sorry to hear about the loss of dear Pearl. Some Bible scriptures that have helped me during times of loss include Isaiah 26:19 and Psalm 37:28,29 which states in part: "Your dead ones will live...They will rise up". And the Bible also says "The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will forever reside upon it". Therefore the Bible promises that we may be reunited with our loved ones lost in death by means of an earthly resurrection. This is further confirmed by John 5:28,29 which says "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". This is possible thanks to Jesus Christ's ransom sacrifice. Thus we have a genuine hope of everlasting life in a world without wickedness or suffering. I hope that these scriptures will be of some comfort to you.
