Below is scripture from Proverbs 31 providing a fitting description of this wife and mother:
“A good wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her….”
“….Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her; Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all.”
“Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised….”
Cremation. Inurnment will take place at a later date with her husband at the Riverside National Cemetery, Riverside, California.
