We will miss Dad greatly! |
It was an emotional day on Saturday. Rather a lot of mixed emotions. It is always hard to let go of our earthly relationships even when we know dad had a long, good life. We do have many, many good memories of him. Pastor Ralph had a very Christ-centered message and shared many encouraging passages from scripture, not only for yesterday but for the uncertain days ahead. The condolences and promises for prayers for me and my family was so encouraging.
At this time we are still waiting to hear about the results of my surgery and the program for chemo and radiation. We know that all we can do is wait patiently and pray that God will give the doctors wisdom and help us to trust him with the future.
Today I was able to go to both church services. It was good to worship and fellowship together.
Sunday afternoon walks with the Family
and often the animals too.
Praise God Christ was lifted up at the funeral. Our only hope!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a long while since I've walked through those woods. I remember John, Josh and I camped out there one time! There were beavers in the river and rocks to climb on. It was a grand time. I'm glad you were able walk down memory lane together.
Love Lucy
Thanks for the posts.
I remember you and Joanne taking us down to the back of the farm too. Your kids were still small then. They had made a dam and a pond for wading. It's so wonderful that you feel well enough to be up and about again. Keep taking those walks ...not just on Sunday ...the fresh air and sunshine does wonders :)
