Lisa,
My prayers are with you and your family. You may not remember me but You were one of my religion educators in my RCIA class at St Jude. I think of you often as you were a very positive influence on me. I was baptized Easter of 1992 to give you an idea of how long ago this was. The group gave me a double rosary for our wedding ceremony. I hope you find strength and peace over these next few days, the weeks to come, and through all the "first" holidays. Those are the hardest.

I remember Mrs.Doerr singing so beautifully in the house when I was visiting Lisa. She also was a great Camp Fire Girl leader always encouraging us as we worked on projects and making anyone new feel welcome.
