Revamped In Memory of...

I wrote earlier that my uncle passed away. He did not. Joe did not understand my uncle Jim when he called. Uncle Jim was calling to let us know that his oldest daughter 47 years old had passed away of a heart attack. My uncle was devastated. She was a single mom of two and had no insurance. She had ignored symptoms that could have potentially saved her life had she realized what was going on. So sad for all involved. It's worse to me that Uncle Jim lost a daughter you just don't expect to bury your children. He has suffered such loss over the past couple years, his brother, his brother in law, his nephew, his sister in law, his sister and now his daughter. I pray that he is done with loss for awhile and can enjoy his family and have some happiness for awhile. We are going to try to get up there for the funeral to give him support. He did so much for us it is the least we can do. During my dads and my brothers funeral he was right there for us at all hours of the day and night. I want to give him a little of that back. I pray I can. Keep him in your prayers please.
