Prayers for hero's family.

Post by johnny twoshoes »

I lost my Grandfather (on my Dad's side) to cancer yesterday morning. It was only a loss for those left behind, he was truly headed home when he took his last breath. We were all blessed to have him here as long as we did and the souls he touched and taught are too many to count. He was one of the most genuine people I ever knew and he had a quality about him that felt like home. He will truly be missed by all who knew him.

I ask that you would send prayers for his wife of 65 years, she is at a loss that most people never feel. She has a great family that will support her through it all, but she will still hurt.

Thank you one in all for the kind words spoken and the generous prayers sent.
This place is so full of love and is a true blessing to those in need. I find strength from knowing you guys are praying and I know my grandmother will find strength from the Lord. I will do the best I can to make life more full for her, but I know that there will always been a hole in her. She is a strong woman, but we all have our times of weakness, just continue to pray that she has the strength for those times.

I really appreciate you so very much and your kind words warm my heart.

Caleb, I have been away for a short while, but my prayers go out to you and your family who are left behind. I am glad he is home and just rejoice in the fact that you all will see him again before too long. Kelley
