Sad Passing

Just wanted to write of the passing away of Matt's grandma today. It was inevitable but it doesn't diminish the pain. The funeral will be sometime next week and Matt and dad will travel home. Mom will be organizing the funeral preparations so will be kept busy. Most of the brothers and sisters were home prior to grandma's passing.
Please add an extra prayer for the family and their grieving.
Job 19:25-27 "I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand upon the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God. I myself will see him with my own eyes-I , and not another. How my heart yearns within me!"

Hi Matt and family,
We too, are sorry to hear of your loss, she was a special person and will be sorely missed. Hope you can feel the hugs and prayers coming your way. Joanne, please take care of you too, take time to grieve, try find some time to just do nothing, a pastors wife once told me to learn to take minute vactions, I have learned, and you almost stay sane that way.(Ha,ha) Love Carol, Wince & family

Hi Everyone,

My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you during this time. As you may or may not know, my grampa Wilson passed away just in March and even though we knew the time may come, we are never ready. It helps to remember that there suffering has ended and they are in a much better place. Be strong in your faith as it helps lead the way through this difficult time.
Sending love and prayers
