Hello Monette and everyone else, I know I haven't been on here for quite awhile. Life has been busy. My dad who was 95 on the 29th of aug. has been sick and I have had to go up twice this summer to help him with things, it is a 6 hour drive to get there and to be able to get three or four days off in a row at work is kind of hard. But he is still hanging in there... Last Friday night my foster brother past away and his funeral is next Sat. the 9th of September which is the same day as his wife's birthday, it is going to be an emotional day for all of us. I have been in his family for over 50 years. But at least I know he has gone to be with his Lord and he is out of pain now. ( Can't say the same for my dad though, maybe you could pray for his salvation.) So as I am the one living in my brothers home town I have been asked to contact anyone that I would think would like to attend the funeral, they moved from here about 12 years ago and live 4 hours away, but his request was that he be buried from our hometown of Abbotsford, so I have been doing that. Most of the family lives out of town and they will be coming home shortly. At least my older sister was able to arrive home from Costa Rica on Wed. and spend three days with him before he past on, praise the Lord that she was able to do that. Must close now as I have to run to work, but just wanted to be uplifted in your prayers. Thank you. |
