Beloved Mother, Grandmother and Sister...

Yesterday, we were deeply saddened by the sudden passing of a loved one. Teri Mickelson Cary went to meet Jesus. Knowing that she is now in the presence of the Lord is comforting, but the pain of separation is no less severe. We covet your prayers especially now. I'm including a photograph of Teri with her grandchildren and husband, Jim. It's a very sweet picture.
