I know I just wrote you yesterday, but we just wanted to let you know that Mary (Mary Ann's mom) died today at about 3:00. She had a pretty ruff night and most of the day, but is now resting. Mary Ann's sister Susan was going to come tomorrow, but came today about 1:00. Gracie was at a birthday party across the street when it happened, then I took her over to my brothers so she wouldn't be here when they came to take away her body. Both Gracie and Mary Ann are now crying together and talking of all the good times we've had with Grandma. Gracie just drew a picture of Grandma dead and all of us crying and went back and put it on her empty bed. She knew this was coming for some time now so we've all had grieving time now for awhile. Thank you all for your prayers. This has been quite an experience. Pray for openness now to share the Good News with family and friends. It already has. Pray also for us as we handle all the funeral arrangements etc. in these next few weeks or so. Grace to you all, Darwin.
Darwin, Mary Ann and Gracie Jackson
