Mearl Jacobs’ body was at the funeral home. The memorial service was   31  for the next day. We   32 in the family room to tell stories, sharing   33 of her. She had lived a life   34 with stories. Most people didn’t know that she had worked for thirty years at Rockwall International to help the homeless, or that   35  she really didn’t care much for baseball, she loved listening to the   36  because her son loved baseball.
Before long the   37 turned from stories about Mearl to stories of how she changed and   38  the lives in the room.
Her daughter Carol, said, “Just a few hours before Mom died she said she wanted to go home. I asked her if she   39   back to her apartment. She said, ‘NO!’ I asked, ‘Home in Heaven?’‘YES!’”
A series of love and   40  was realized that night. Mearl had lived a life that affected the young and old   41 . When she did so, you became a different person, a   42  and reformed person. She was   43 that way. She knew how to show the things that really   44 in the life.
