So, Ana got her wish – to see Jesus face to face; you are seeing what we can only imagine! Beautiful sister in Christ, we will remember you and the love you shared, the prayers you prayed for others, your gentle spirit and your kind heart. It is a bittersweet thing, as those you have left behind feel the loss, but we know that you are on a great adventure that will never grow old and will last forever. May God cover and comfort your family and friends now. May we remember your life and smile, until we meet again……..
