Most say that as time passes it becomes esier to accept, etc. the loss of a loved one. For me, the loss of my baby sister and best friend has NOT become easier. Each and every day it is more and more difficult. All that keeps me going is that her two babies, Brent and Blaine, are with me and in them I see her more and more each day. I love her babies more than anything in the world, like they are my own. I MISS MY BABY SIS AND I LOVE HER WITH ALL OF MY HEART, NOW AS MUCH AS EVER. SHE IS STILL THE BEST FRIEND AND SISTER I HAVE EVER HAD. SHE TRULY WAS AN ANGEL WALKING AMOUNG US.

Dear Wayne, Linda & family,
I am so very sorry to hear about Krisy's passing. I pray that our dear Lord Jesus Christ will keep the Comforter close by your sides throughtout this period of grief. Just remember what the KJV bible tells us: We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8). Krissy is happy in heaven now. No more fleshy problems. Her spirit has left this world and soared straight by the Lord Jesus Christ's side. She has actually just began to live eternally!!! That's infinitey FOREVER! Praise the Lord! She would want us to rejoice over her passage & be strong for her children. They are the ones to concentrate on now! She still is here fleshly through those babies! May God bless you all. Your are in my prayers!

Lloyd, Dixie and entire Potter family, I am so sorry for your loss. Krissy will be missed. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless you all. Christy Daugherty (Knoxville,TN)
