Thank you. I just lost my dad last night. It’s still very raw.

My sweet friend John… a flood of memories came back when I read this post. Thank you for your sweet words. We had only facilitated a couple of groups when we met you and Maggie. We wanted so desperately to help you. And Grief Share provided the tools. Who would have thought that your unimaginable pain could be used to help so many others?? As your friend and sister, I have been and will always be so proud of you. I wish I could be there to be the designated hugger for your new group. Royce and I will be praying for you as you once again take a deep breath, swallow hard, smile and start helping hurting people. We love you!

Think of you and your Maggie May often! Love and prayers to you both always! Being a fellow traveler helped me thru our time. Did not have Grief Share, but God and those who cared meant so much!

Thanks Lee, you’ve certainly had more than your fair share of grief and illness.
