I want to thank each of you for your prayers over the past week.  It is with great regret and a heavy heart that I must announce the passing of my mother, Hazel Rogers.

Those of you that had an opportunity to meet her know what an amazing woman she was.  She persevered through the best of times and the worst of times, and she never let this world pin her down.  I take great solace in the fact that my mother knew her Creator, and that I'll see again one day.

I encourage each and every one of you to take a moment tonight to call your parents and tell them how much you love them.  You won't regret it.

I had the opportunity to meet your mom and speak with her on a couple of different occasions, she was a wonderful person and I am incredibly saddened to hear of your loss.  You will be in my prayers and if there is anything that I can do please let me know.

I am very saddened by your loss Jim, I can't even imagine. My heart and prayers (and Susies) are with you and your family. Stay strong brother, you have a peace in knowing that you will see her again in a place of glory and perfection. She is home with the Lord, and we can't ask for anything better. I pray the hand of the Lord is on you and your family, comforting you and giving you rest.

Your friends are with you,

Jason

I'm sorry to hear that James.  I only met your mother once, and she was a very sweet lady.  I didn't know her, but I think one can judge a person by the friends and family they keep around them.  With that in mind, I know to have raised a person as good hearted as you bob (And you are whether you like to admit it or not) she must have been a very special person indeed.

I'll say a prayer for her tonight.  And thats not something I do very often anymore.
