When my daughter died several years ago we played Celine’s I’ll Be Your Angel as part of the music. IMO one of her best songs. Perhaps it will also be very meaningful to her during this time of extreme grief. Prayers up for her and her entire family.

Alan Rickman found out he had terminal cancer only weeks before he died! Poor man; I’m sure he had enormous plans for the future.

Something needs to be done about this insidious disease.

If she doesn’t know Jesus, I pray this will cause her to come to Him. Coming to the end of ourselves is sometimes what it takes. In that sense, it would be God’s mercy that allowed and used these tragedies.

Husband and brother within a few days of each other??

That happened to my next door neighbour a couple years ago.... brother and husband in the same hospital with cancer and died within 2 days of each other. The only thing you have at that point is 2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Sad. Prayers for her and all the other celebrities lost since Christmas. Lemmy, David Bowie, Natalie Cole, Dan Haggerity and Alan Rickman plus the entire Celine Dion family.

I forgot Wayne Rogers and Ted Marchibroda, former NFL player, also passed.

A friend of mine lost her husband to cancer and her brother to a heart attack about 12 hours later. Her husband died in hospital Tuesday evening; her brother Wed morning while ordering breakfast at McDonald’s. Her brother was a minister who was on his way back here to conduct her husband’s funeral.
