Congratulations Kelly!

Today I’m headed here………

It’s hard to believe it has been two years since my Mom passed away.

I miss her so much but I’m thankful to have been blessed to have her as my Mom.

Her legacy of love for her Savior and her family lives on through each of us.

I wanted to share this poem my brother wrote to my Mom after we found

out she had stage 4 gastric cancer.

There is None Better!

I hear people brag about their moms, but if they ever met mine they would know.

 There is none better.

You think you know a Christian that talks the talk and walks the walk?

Well let me introduce you to my mom.

 There is none better.

I always thought the best way to describe a Christian is “Servant.”

You should meet my mom.

There is none better.

Do you know someone who is unselfish? Puts everyone above themselves?

Would give you anything they had?

I call her Wanda Faye, she’s my mom, and trust me,

There is none better.

I’ve known her 37 years. I’ve seen her faithfulness.

I’ve gotten up at 5 in the morning and found her reading her bible.

I’ve watched her prepare to teach bible studies.

This isn’t just a bias. I’m telling you!

There is none better.

She’s fighting cancer now.  She even does that selflessly and gracefully.

I can’t tell you how many cards she has received. What does my mom do?

She uses all the energy she has to try and write everyone back.

Do I really need to do anymore convincing?

There is none better.

If you’ve been fortunate enough to meet my mom you know what I mean.

If she’s touched your hand, smiled that sweet smile, told you she loved you,

told you she was praying for you, well consider yourself blessed…she meant every word.

There is none better.

If the Lord does decide to take her home before we are ready.

I can’t say I blame him. He knows what I do.

There is none better. ~by Blake Long

My Mom went to be with the Lord on September 22, 2009,

and my brother is right…….There is none better.

I love  you Mom!!!

Thank you all for stopping by…….you’re a blessing to me!

  1. This is so touching,what a wonderful Christian example your Mom was.You have been blessed by her very presence in your lives…

  2. Thinking of you and Traci today, Cyndi. I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since my Momma went home, too. October 4th will be a bittersweet day.

    Sending hugs your way!

  3. Thinking of you all and of Wanda today. It’s hard to believe that two years have already passed without her. I agree “There is none better”. Love you all, Aunt Pat

  4. Thinking of you and your family as you remember your Mom and celebrate her life and ministry. Praying that the day will be filled with laughter and wonderful memories.
