We mourn the passing of a dear friend from our church and hs group. Just yesterday, we waved and honked and said "hi" to her loudly, as we drove by the hospital on the way home from homeschool co-op. It's a ritual that my friend Janet does every week! It helped during those times that Sheryl couldn't have visitors. Her daughter rides home with us, and everything was just so...normal. We had great conversation about the homeschool prom and hair styles and fun girl things. Then came the news in the evening about what the doctor said...how Sheryl had taken a turn for the worse.
Sheryl went home to be with the Lord this morning. 10-22-05. It's been a long journey for the family. *SO* many lives were touched by Sheryl's strength and courage; were touched by her family's journey.
I know Sheryl is in a better place. Is there any better place to be than in the arms of the Lord?
It still doesn't make it any easier to understand while we who remain here on earth grieve. Being an adult REALLY stinks sometimes. There is just too much to do and be.
