| Margie, enveloped in hugs from her two granddaughters, Kristin & Jennifer a rare photo in this season of her life, taken the day of her husband's funeral ~ October 2012 ~ Lillian Margaret Stoll 1929 - 2014 In her right mind and at peace after the long dark journey through the shadows of dementia's cruel bewilderment, confusion, and fear Her body, strong and agile, completely healed That lovely smile more beautiful than ever before Freed from life's cares and burdens Her spirit, vibrant and radiant, rejoicing in Jesus' presence Welcomed into heaven's magnificent splendor by all those precious loved ones gone before We released you long ago, Mom It is a great grief that this season left you unable to know your great-grandchildren for they are your legacy and their lively exuberance and love for Jesus would have filled your soul with great delight Bittersweet tears are laced with a peace-laden gratitude for our Heavenly Father has finally welcomed His precious daughter Home Skip, run, dance, and rejoice in His majestic presence for there are no chains that bind you And thanks one more time, Mom, for shaping your son into the man who became my husband He is a godly man of great integrity and noble character and I am forever grateful for your imprint on his life I love you 
* Deep Gratitudes *
