[tri-wings] Re: tri-wings Digest V9 #84

Thank you so much for remembering. This past year has been incredibly hard,
but we've also experienced so much outpouring of love. One of our dearest
friend and coworker found his 23 year old beautiful daughter dead a couple
of months ago. She had committed suicide. She worked in an ER at a hospital.
The church was packed. Without faith and friends, how could we ever survive?
I admire your faithfulness and I love this list of such wonderful people. I
don't post very often, things are so busy, but I do read the digest every
time and I do pray for everyone. 

The memories are so precious. When Paula was a teenager and her hormones
were raging, she would run away from home - usually when Shirley wanted her
to clean her room. We lived close to a river and she had a special spot. I
would always find her there. We would talk for an hour or so and finally she
would be ok and come home to face another day. At the time, I didn't really
think that those memories would be so special. Now I am so thankful for
them. 

This list, more than any other, pushes us to enjoy each precious moment we
have with those we love. Even those times when we pull off their socks and
see their bloody toes will become precious because they are "real." I love
you guys a bunch!

Paul,
Just a quick note to let you know that I'm thinking about you, your  
wife, and your grandchildren today as you remember Paula.  I wish I  
could do more.  Take care and remember good things.

Hugs,
Sheila  Helleson
