Mrs. Valentine was one of the nicest moms for my elementary school class that I (Janis) have met. Her love for the Lord radiated in the care she gave her children and the work that she did to raise them. We are in prayer for your loss and offer our condolences during this time of grief.

My mother in law, or should I just say my mother. I am happy we got to spend a few years together as family. I will miss you forever and thank you for being such a great new grandmother as well. I am sad that you will not be here to see him grow up but I know you’re watching from above.
