Warra, your mother was so very loved and admired by everyone who knew her. She made everyone feel welcome and always knew just what to say. You could always depend on receiving your special birthday card and a warm embrace on Sunday from Mother Foster. She was a rare and special type of lady who made a great impact on all of us at Eastminster. Live in the memories of all the precious times you shared with her. Rejoice in the Lord's love and know, even in your sorrow, that He has welcomed your mother into the Kingdom of Heaven.
