"I command
you--be
strong and
courageous!
Do not be
afraid or
discouraged.
For the LORD
your God is
with you
wherever you
go."
Joshua 1:9
We are no
strangers to
grief and
suffering.
While our
family has
endured so
many losses,
the loss of
our beloved
daughter
and sister
Jennifer on
August 13,
1994 and the
most recent
loss of our
precious
grandson,
son, and
nephew Jacob
on January
23, 2007
were
devastating.
Without
God's love,
mercy and
grace, we
could not
survive.
Their
stories are
contained on
the next two
pages and we
hope you
will share
in their
lives and
our
memories.
People tell
us they
admire our
strength and
our faith,
but please
understand
we are not
that
strong. We
grieve just
like you.
At times God
seems very
far away and
we struggle
to make
sense of the
tragedy of
this world.
We share our
tears and
our hopes
and we lean
on His
precious
arms. We
are
supported by
the prayers
of hundreds
who know our
story and
their
endless plea
for
strength,
peace and
comfort in
our hearts.
We hope if
you are
touched by
this web
site you
will not be
in awe of
us, but
rather be in
awe of God's
loving
grace. It
is available
to all who
seek it.
I can do all
things
through
Christ who
strengthens
me. Phil
4:13
The LORD is
my shepherd,
I shall not
be in want.
He makes me
lie down in
green
pastures,
he leads me
beside quiet
waters,
He restores
my soul.
He guides me
in paths of
righteousness
for his
name's sake.
Even though
I walk
through the
valley of
the shadow
of death,
I will fear
no evil,
for you are
with me;
your rod and
your staff,
they comfort
me.
You prepare
a table
before me
in the
presence of
my enemies.
You anoint
my head with
oil;
my cup
overflows.
Surely
goodness and
love will
follow me
all the days
of my life,
and I will
dwell in the
house of the
LORD
forever.
Psalm 23
