Doris

Sue's sister Doris passed away on Thursday.  A couple of years ago she was diagnosed with breast cancer.  She had surgery and chemo then, but a couple of weeks ago they found out that the cancer had spread everywhere.  We just saw her at the family Christmas on January 2nd.  It was a couple of days later when she went to the doctor and found the cancer.  I still can't believe how fast she went.  She was in a lot of pain so I know it was a blessing in disguise, but it doesn't make it any easier. 

Doris was a very special lady who will be missed by all of us.

Life Is But A Stopping Place

Life is but a stopping place,

A pause in what's to be,

A resting place along the road,

to sweet eternity.

We all have different journeys.

Different paths along the way,

We all were meant to learn some things,

but never meant to stay...

Our destination is a place,

Far greater than we know.

For some the journey's quicker,

For some the journey's slow.

And when the journey finally ends,

We'll claim a great reward,

And find an everlasting peace,

Together with the lord.
