Jill, so sorry to hear about this! My neighbor was just telling me yesterday about a young mother of five children who passed away who lived near us. I was so disheartened by the news. I had no idea she was in your family. She sounds like a wonderful woman. Perhaps she and Heavenly Father chose Easter time for a reason. Our prayers are with all of you.
