A lifetime of memories with my sister. One recent memory is a sunny day spent at Conneaut Lake Park a couple summers ago, dipping our feet in the Lazy River in the summer heat – eating ice cream. Kathy loved music, and loved to dance. I hope she is dancing up a storm under beautiful sunny skies.
I love you, Mom. I cannot wait to see you again in our complete glory. Rest easy now. All your sorrows have passed. My spirit feels you not on Earth anymore and it makes me sad but I rejoice that you now are with our Father! PTL!!! 2 Timothy 4:7-8 NIV I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
