Home at Last

Mom stepped into Heaven around 7:20 this morning. I had the privilege of being with her.

We are experiencing such a mixed bag of emotions, but so thankful that her battle with cancer is over. She was brave all the way to the end.

We will be having a memorial service for her on Thursday, March 20, 1:00 at her home church, Hinson Memorial Baptist in Portland.

Thank you for your continued prayers and love. We feel them!

  3. Cheryl, please know that my heart is with you. I know this has been such a trying time for you guys, and that the battle isn't over for you. I know it is a relief to know that your mom is no longer in pain, but now you have a whole new realm of grief to deal with. I am here for you for ANYTHING you need from me, ok? Love you, dear friend.
