Unhappy Our Neighbor Passed Away

A neighbor that lived just south of us passed away and her viewing was today.

We were just sitting down around 1:00 on Thanksgiving to eat our dinner when Ricky said that there was a hearse going by. I meant to say it to myself, but said "please God, not today." Vicki passed away at noon on Thanksgiving Day leaving 3 grown daughters and 3 grandchildren plus one on the way.

She was only 55 years old and died of cancer. It started out as melanoma (sp) and spread so drastically to her lungs. She was one of the best examples of a Christian I've ever met. She will be missed by all who knew her.

Here is a link to a beautifully written obituary if you care to read it.

That is very sad. She really was too young to pass. The obituary is lovely. I wonder who wrote it.

My prayers for her family and friends.

I am sorry to hear this Janet, she was a young woman and to pass away on the holiday is just terrible for the family. May she rest in peace.

I always hate to see anyone pass on a holiday - it forever mars that day for the rest of the family! Melanoma is very very bad.

Ya know, I was just thinking today that...yesterday they buried her and today....life just goes on. Oh sure I know it's like that for everyone, but sometimes...it would be nice if time could just stand still for a little while.

I know that I've felt that way before too. Like when my father-in-law died it was sad that the world didn't know what a great guy that they lost. Time should have certainly stood still for him.
