Heaven is a brighter place today now that Mama has Daddy back with her in Heaven, Mama told him she would be waiting at the gate for him, I believe this to be true knowing how my mother loved him.

I know my Aunt Linda is rejoicing at this moment with my Uncle Frank. No more pain or sorrow with our Lord and Savior. They were so much in love with each other, a wonderful example for any couple. I don't recall Uncle Frank ever calling my Aunt Linda "Linda", instead it was always a term of endearment like "Sweetie-Pie". I will forever remember them with a smile and a warm feeling in my heart. I love you and will miss you Uncle Frank and Aunt Linda.

Uncle Frank was one of the greatest, loving & God fearing men that I had the privilege of knowing. Him & Aunt Linda were always super role models that will be missed here on earth. However, I know beyond a shadow of doubt that I too will join them one day in Heaven along with all of the other family members that have passed. But until then, I imagine the Murray clan is having a good ole fashion throw down in Heaven right now. Rest in Peace Uncle Frank, Love, Judy Murray Carden
