Dear "Diane,"
Who would
have ever known, other than our LORD, that you would be unwittingly and
unknowingly going home to Him a year and almost 7 months after you slept on a
sidewalk tucked inside a donated quilt?
You were and
are loved by so many people who had the joy of knowing you. Mom, Dad, Sisters, Step Dad, best Friend and
extended Family[1]
love and adore you to this day and for the remainder of their lives.
You gave
them two precious living memorials to your life. May God Almighty be with those memorials and
teach them His ways as you would have done as the healthy Christian Mom who you
so very much wanted to be.
You wanted
healing. You sought healing. For as much as you wanted and sought while on
this earth, it was not to be found here for reasons that need societal correcting. You did find healing within the loving eternal
presence of your Savior.

| From "Diane's" letter to me 10 days before she went Home. |
Day by day,
we mourn our loss. Through our tears
that miss your presence, your hug, your naturally raspy voice, we do what we
can to celebrate in knowing that you did find healing when you met Face to Face
with your Ultimate Healer.
We miss
you. We celebrate you. We worship our LORD with you on earth as you
do in His actual factual Presence in Heaven.
We seek rest
in knowing that your earthbound battle is over. We do what we can to know that you rest in
the presence of the King of Kings and LORD of LORDS. We seek to sleep at night knowing that you sleep
in the bliss of Heavenly eternity.
