Dear family and friends, I am sorry to hear of the loss of your mother, grandmother and friend. The Bible states at Isaiah 25:8 that "He (God) will swallow up death forever.’ The Bible further states at Psalm 37:11, all of us have the prospect of living on a peaceful earth. That includes Bertha. When you are ready, to learn more about "Can the Dead Really Live Again?", view this 1/2 page article to learn the Bible's answer to that question: tinyurl.com/mezwv23.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all, Aunt Bertha was one of my favorites I have countless memories of her. Being the oldest Aunt Bert had plenty of stories to tell , she would share stories with me about my Dad growing up her baby brother. When we would come to visit after Big Mama died everyone went to Aunt Bertha house, She step up to the plate and took care of her family. She even got me my first job when we lived in Ohio for that short time. I will never forget her smile or her Laugh!! To her Children sorry I cannot be with you, but I am praying for you all. May God continue to Bless and Keep Shaw Family!!

Well Grandma you finally got out of here. I will forever love and cherish the memories, especially all of the stories you told me growing up. I know family was very important to you, and I hope that you are in heaven having a blast with all of the family that has left this side before you. You and I would sing this song and I want to just type a few of the words......he brought me from a mighty long way! Love you Bert Baby!
