Rest on Mrs. Austin. Although I never met you, we are connected by way of your beautiful daughter Renee. I know you were proud of her and those awesome grand babies! To Renee and family, our hearts are heavy as we grieve with you. Please know that we are lifting you all up in prayer, asking the Lord to comfort each of you as only He can. No one knows your pain like the Lord so, take every burden and lay it at His feet, no matter how big, no matter how small. Let the Lord handle it and you all rest in the comfort of His loving arms. Take one day at a time and walk slowly with the Lord while you focus on the loving memories of your mother. Let the tears fall as they come. It’s ok. The Comforter is with you and He’ll dry each one until there are no more. We love you and will keep in touch. Mama Jean & Big Mike
