Aunt Eleanor and Family, please know, we all loved him so much and try to remember all the wonderful times we had together, there were many. Now, you girls must stay strong for each other and help each other day by day. I was given a prayer from a friend at work who had just lost her Mother. I'd like to share it with you. .."Dear Lord, Please help me in this time of loss and overwhelming grief. I don't understand why my life is filled with this pain and heartache. But I turn my eyes to you as I seek to find the strength to trust in your faithfulness. I will wait on you and not despair; I will quietly wait for your salvation. My heart is crushed, but I know that you will not abandon me forever. Please show me your compassion, Lord. Help me through the pain so that I will hope in you again. I believe this promise in your Word to send me fresh mercy each day. Though I can't see past today, I trust your great love will never fail me. Amen."
