Father, the loss of a mother is a very difficult thing to experience. I ask that you be with Frank during this time to comfort him and to strengthen him. Limit the time of his grieving and help him to remember instead the many beautiful years that they spent together. Help to focus on how much he cherishes the memory of the nurturing and love he received from this woman that gave him life. Father comfort this mother as she travels the last mile of this earthly journey. Keep pain far from her and flood her mind with thoughts of you and with the knowledge that her life had much meaning especially to her son. Father bring her home to you in joy and in glory. Let tears shed be tears of rejoicing that her mission is complete and that she goes now to a heavenly reward so great that we cannot even imagine the beauty of it. In Jesus name...Amen!
