Our Parents taught us to love the Lord, that love lasts forever, and that they would never be apart. They always told us their prayer was to go to heaven the same day. On their last days we sat next to them singing hymns from Mom's CD of her playing the piano. We gently placed their hands together and prayed that the Lord would take them to heaven together. We truly experienced a miracle. We want to especially thank Woodhaven Village and Devotion Hospice for taking care of our parents and being with us.
