Family and Friends
The family of the late Mrs. Dorothy Ann Jacobs acknowledges with grateful appreciation the many kind and tender expressions
of sympathy extended by friends, neighbors, church members and associates during these hours of sadness in the loss of our mother. Your thoughtsfulness has been a source of strength and comfort. We thank God for you and ask His blessings upon you.
Just because you cannot see me, does not mean I an not there. Just because I am in heaven, does not mean I do not care.
I often see you crying, you often say my name, I want to hold you tight, I want to ease your pain.
It's easy for me, for I know heaven is real,
If you knew the truth, how much better would you feel.
One day we will meet again, but only when the time is right, when you step out of the darkness, I will be standing in the light.
