"Tell God what you are thinking"....

those, along with "I love you", happened to be Ryan's last words to his Grandma Donna late last night. How did he know she'd soon be able to talk to God face to face? ... She met Jesus this morning! I know a blog is not the place to share this news, necessarily, but it is our life today. We've shared lots of good times here; this is a very sad day, yet a day of rejoicing as she is pain free and with her God and Savior for eternity now.

We've shared bits and pieces here on this site of her journey the past 7 months since being diagnosed with the liver disease and want to thank all of you for your prayers on her behalf and for our family. The reality has not quite sunk in yet. And we have a 4-year-old that will keep us thinking with his questions for a long time!
Thank you, God, for this amazing and wonderful Mom, Mom-in-law, and Grandma! May she be running, singing, and dancing with you today!

We're keeping your family in our prayers. We're so sorry for your loss...and yet rejoicing with you that she is pain free and with our Savior in heaven! Praise God! How special that she had such a sweet moment with Ryan before she passed on. Praying that you are comforted by our Father in heaven who knows your sorrow better than anyone. Take care...

I am rejoicing that Donna has met our Lord and that you will all one day be reunited...
but my heart is soooo sad for you guys! I am so glad you made a quick trip to GR - Ryan is so open to the Lord, I am excited to watch what He will do with him.
May the Lord draw close to your family, Steve, Anne and Ryan.
Love, Wendy
