It is never easy to say goodbye to a loved one, especially someone who was so amazing. Nan was a beautiful woman of God. She spent her life living righteously and sharing the Good News of Jesus. She had the gift of love and showed that love and compassion to everyone she met. Her laugh was contagious, and her smile was comforting. She was a devoted wife and helped raise three strong boys into men. Whether it was fishing, hunting, or cars, she could jump right in whatever the boys were doing. She was the kind of mother that would mend the wounds before encouraging you to keep trying. She was a woman of so much wisdom and never hesitated to share it. Her guidance was patient and loving, and she never gave up on those she cared about. She may have only stood 5’2, but she was mighty in strength. We are so blessed for the time we had with her and for the wisdom she passed down to us.
