i know it is a little late at night but i can't seem to stop thinking of my dear aunt marion.
i have looked up a few older posts that i made and thought that you would be interested in seeing what a truly brave person she was.
she has always had trouble seeing but for the last few months, she went totally blind and for the last two months of her life, she could no longer walk and yet when mom golden and i visited her, she rarely complained and we always came away from that visit, feeling glad that we had gone.
quite often we would listen with her to her cd's which her children had got her and we would hear stories of the pictures on the wall.
like mom golden has, so did aunt marion.
surrounding her on every side were tons of pictures of her children, grand children and great grand children..
she will be soooo missed!

My dear Terry,
Just heard about your Aunt Marion and wanted to leave a note. I'll be praying for you and your sweet family. Tried to leave a comment on Passing-thru's blog, too, but it wouldn't go thru...hope this reaches you. Sending a big hug {{Terry}}
My condolences to you and your family, Terry.
My deepest sympathy to your family, especially Mom Golden at this time. It's so hard to say goodbye, but oh what a reunion is waiting for those who call the Lord their Savior. I keep you all in my prayers.
I can't help but think of the joy that Aunt Marion is experiencing at this moment --joy that is so overwhelming that it's without description. May the Lord hold you and your family close at this time...until you meet with your precious Aunt again!
...and praying that God will use this situation for His glory...always! ...praying for Dad Golden!!
Dear Terry,
Thank you for your latest comment at my blog, informing me of your Aunt Marion's homegoing. Oh, I am sure you are all so sad, esp Mom Golden, but Aunt Marion has lived a full life.
Praise God for her bravery even up to the last few hours of her earthly life.
Sending you my love and my sympathies at this time, dear friend Terry.

Dearest Terry,
I'm just home from visiting my mother.
You know I have been praying.
Now I will especially pray for your mother, your aunt's children and yourself.
You have been the nicest and most considerate niece ever.
I pray for strength in the days to follow and also for Dad Golden.
That this may touch him in a special way.
You all have my deep-felt condolences.
Yours Felisol
Sharing in your sorrow for the loss of your dear aunt. But rejoicing with heaven as she is welcomed home. May the good Lord give you all comfort and peace in your hearts as you mourn your loss.
Love,
