Elder John Walsh's mother's death and parting benediction

“In keeping with a life that had exemplified these principles, Sister Strong gave the following advice to Elder Walsh when he told her that he had received a call to go on another mission, intimating, however, that perhaps he had better remain with her as she was getting old and might not stay with them long. Said the mother: 'Go, by all means. If I die, all is well with me; if I live, it is the same. You can not keep me here when my time comes. Go: and the Lord bless you!' — Millennial Star 86:34”
