She was a loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother to her children. She was a blessing to all those who came in contact with her.
She was a true blessing to the lives of many. She will be remembered for her great smile, humility, loving and caring attention. She served the Lord with faith, grace and devotion in the midst of adversities. She is survived by her five children and their spouses (James & Jolly, Pinky & Chandy, John & Mercy, Susy & Abraham and Jose & Binu). She also was blessed with ten grandchildren (Rachel went to be with the Lord) and thirteen great-grand-children. We will all miss her dearly, but as believers in Christ we all have that blessed assurance that we will see her one day on that Heavenly shore.
2 Timothy 4:7-8, I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing
