One Sad Day

This is a sad day for me (in fact it is a sad month) because this is the anniversary of the passing of my dear sister in-law in 2011. We used to do a lot of things together and she was a person I could always count on and she always knew she could count on me also. She was 84 when she passed and had been in a nursing home from a stroke she had. I remember the last Holiday we had with her was on Thanksgiving in the nursing home and she couldn't cut her meat so I cut everything for her. She was very grateful for my help, I still miss her and think of her often. She was a good person with lots of friends.

Sorry for your loss. It's so sad to lose a family or someone you are very closed to. She'll always live in your heart or memory.

The good news is that you will see your loved ones in the next lifetime according to a book that was written by the late Garner Ted Armstrong called "Believe It Or Not The Bible Does Not Promise Heaven."
