Memories - Are Made of This!

Look what I got in today's Mail - a Notice for 2017 Holiday Show In New Prague MN.  What Memories I have going there with my dear friend Phyllis.  and her daughter Bunny.  She enjoyed shopping the boutiques, especially around the holidays.  what pleasant memories.  I do miss her very much.  You see Phyllis passed away this past July from Cancer.  So these memories are bittersweet.  We always did have fun driving around to the different boutiques, shops, and sales throughout the year.

This year has been a sad one for me because of losing my friends to Cancer. 

   Cancer seems to be all around me.  In 2015 my Brother Bobby died from lung cancer and yesterday my daughter-in-law's Mother Bonnie Passed away from Cancer.  My Neighbor Pat is recovering from cancer treatment - it has been a rough year for her and her husband.  We need to irradicate this blight on our loved ones.  

Feeling Sad today! Cancer has taken another dear friend

Yesterday I learned that my Daughter in Law lost her Mom to Cancer.  I know she is devastated and in deep grief.  My Son has been there by her side.  My Prayer has been that Mom went peacefully, I know she is now in the arms of our Lord Jesus.  I feel Sad for my son and his wife but Celebrating for my friend Bonnie.  She is where she wanted to be, with the Lord.  Bonnie was such a sweet woman and a friend. 

This is the Second friend of mine who has been lost to Cancer this year.  My dearest friend Phyllis died this past July to Cancer.  It's a sad time for me and a great loss of two very lovely ladies.  I also have my neighbor Pat who is fighting cancer.  I have watched her struggle with this disease and have praised the Lord for the little forward steps she has achieved so far.  I do pray she will be a survivor!

Cancer has come to close and personal for me.  I Lost my daughter in law Jenny to Cancer about 6 years ago. She left behind my Son and 2 beautiful daughters who are 10 and 13.  I really support Cancer research and do wish we could eradicate it.
