Rest in Peace Aunti: Sept 2, 1914- June 29, 2010

Aunti has made her way back to the farm. thank you for all the wonderful memories you gave and created with me over the last 33 years of my life. You have left an imprint on me that will never be erased. I love you aunti. NOW YOU BE GOOD!!!

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

Aunti

Please send you prayers our way as my Great Great Aunti Diana passes on. It has been a very difficult, trying few weeks taking care of Aunti. I love her so much and I don't want her to pass yet she is 95 almost 96 and has lived a very long full life. I know she is ready I am just getting ready. Watching someone die and experience every stage of death has been the most challenging, draining yet most amazing thing I have ever been through in my life. I have witnessed her talking to God, asking him to take her and asking to be back with her family again. Aunti's body has shut down yet there is something inside of her that is keeping her going.I pray that when it is my time to go that I will have impacted as many lives as Aunti has. People have come far and wide to see her as she passes over to the next phase of life. I love you Aunti and you have no idea how much you have impacted me. I have learned so much from you and have really stopped and learned to appreciate the little things in life. Thank you for your wittiness, your smile, your laugh, your jokes, your stories, your fashion, your vainness and your love. You are the best great aunt I could have ever asked for.
