Letter to GOD:
GOD, you've just welcomed your beautiful daughter Julia into your home. Our family would like to thank you for allowing us to enjoy and cherish Ma/Julia on this earth for eighty-five wonderful years with her love and joy. And Ma's smile and tenderness made everything in life better! Anyway, we've shed many tears, but now we'll hold onto so many delightful memories.
So, thank you again GOD.
P.S. She will also be an exemplary Angel - so please put her to work, since working was one of her passions! And selfishly, maybe she can visit with us too..
