I love you julie.....

My heart is so full today. I have been thinking about my wonderful sister in law Julie. I got news last night when I got home from work that her mother had passed away suddenly. I was in shock...her dad had been sick but not her mom. It has made me reflect a lot on my own life. How many things we let go unsaid. Do we take for granted our family and the short time that we have with them. My heart goes out to Julie. She is such an amazing woman. I attribute all of her wonderful qualities to her parents. I feel sad about the whole situation. I cant imagine what she must be going through right now. But I want to let her know I love her. I hope that julie you can find peace in knowing....Your mom passed laying next to the man she loved and has taken care of for these past few months. What a nice way to go...peaceful and next to the one you love the most. I am sorry for your loss and would gladly take the pain you must be feeling right now. I took a picture from your blog I hope you don't mind. I wanted to post a picture of your mom....What a great picture hanging out with her grandkids that she loved so much! While I didn't know your mom all that well....I do know that she must have been an amazing person. I know this because of who you are! You continually amaze me at what a great mother, friend and sister in law you are! I love you and hope you can find peace during this trying time! I love you julie!

What a great post. I hope that they know everyone is pulling for them and that they can feel the love of such a wonderful community.

I hope they can find peace over the loss of a mother/wife/sister and friend.

They are in our prayers.

I am so sorry to hear this. I was always in awe of Nanette and that beautiful hair. She would come into the drug store always looking so nice and pretty--even when she was lugging around her very little ones. I remember that.

What a great post. I just heard this morning and then I read your blog. Our prayers go out to Julie and all of her family. We are so sorry for their loss and we also hope they can find peace at this time and remember that they will see each other again.
