At the end of August we learned that the Child Bride's cancer had returned, and, as usually the case, it came back with a vengeance. On 9/13/20 at 9:14 pm her Heavenly Father reached out, clasped her hand and took his daughter home.
For the entire last week I've been surrounded by family, four daughters and a son, friends, church family and a multitude of good folks who expressed their condolances. This last Saturday we all met at our church and said our final goodbyes. Today the last of the relatives went home. My home is quiet.
This is a view of The Child Bride from about 30 years ago....

And this is the day she welcomed our grandson to the world.

She shall be missed.
There is no need to respond to this post in any way. Rather, I would ask that you reach out to your spouse, significant other, or any family member and give them a good. long hug. Our home was filled with 34 plus years of hugs and love and The Child Bride would approve.
You never know the good thing you've got until it's gone.
