Doug & Val, Lane, John & Fran,
Praying for you all to find comfort in knowing that Joyce is safe and secure with our Lord Jesus, though the sorrow is great.
We love you all.
"When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
My sin—oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!—
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!"

You will be so missed dear Auntie. I spent so much time with your family over the years, and have mary precious memories. Heavens gates opened and you were ushered in. A Jager family reunion for sure. Seeing our Savior face to face. You are well and healthy again. Untill we meet again Auntie.❤
