One of my fondest memories of Ma was.. when I first started tutoring @PEM and ALL the kids & most adults calling her “grandma”.. and I really thought all these kids were hers because everyone was tied to someone there (IYKYK).. I used to tease her that she was trying to beat Abraham by having children of many nations 👀🤣 I remember asking her & Aunty Nani once if they really were all her babies & babies’ babies and they laughed for so many days before telling me half of them were just students with no ties to the family 😅😅 and the other half really is all hers 😂😂 she had the best sense of humor and truly saw the light in everything and everyone.. her love for our Lord & Savior was exemplified with every soul who came into contact with her and not just the youth, but, especially the adults. She loved everyone deeply and she never thought anyone was too far gone for redemption through Christ, and thus, many became her hanai kids who lovingly call her “grandma Murl” (as my kids did from childhood well into their adulthood) and “Ma” (as I affectionately do).
Dear Ma,
..the flesh misses you & mourns your absence dearly.. the world has lost such a beautiful and precious gem amongst God’s elite. My spirit finds comfort in knowing that because of your great love for the Master, that this is not the end and will remember to rejoice at your reunion with the Lord. Thank you, for remembering me and coming to say goodbye before your spirit returned to the Father.. I’m looking forward to your warm embrace in heaven 😘😘💜💜 #Until_Rapture
