The end
My Mamaw died she was 92.
She spent 76 years at Elm Grove Assembly of God.
When she passed on, no one brought food to the house.
She spent her life going to nursing homes (taking us), giving away food praying for and helping people.
I never heard her say a bad word about anyone. I love my Mamaw.
When she passed on, no one brought food to the house.
I hate organized religion.

Leland, my heart breaks for you and your pain. I think I’d march right over to the church building, and talk turkey [no pun intended] to the Elders. I’d say someone has dropped the ball on teaching about hospitality, not to mention that we are to mourn with those that mourn.
though we don’t know each other face-to-face, I mourn the loss of your beloved Mawmaw and pray God’s comfort come to you quickly during this time of grieving. Were it possible, I’d give you a hug right through cyberspace. There are those of us that love you, Leland and by extension also love those that you love.
Our wonderful LORD and God has received your Mawmaw to His bosom where she smiles into His face now for eternity. Praise be to Him and His grace and mercy!!
Again, I mourn with you the loss of such a dear soul and one you obviously loved deeply!

I am so sorry for the horrible dismissal of your Mamaw. I aplogoze for organized religion.
Leland, I read your comment on Cope’s blog. I’m so sorry that organized religion makes you feel this way. You’re right. We don’t get it right all of the time or even much of the time. Please be patient with those of us who are trying to organize our religion. We’re silly. Thankfully, God can still overcome our many faults. Praying for you and your family during the holidays, Wendy
