Prayer Needs: TexasFlower has passed away

Posted on 07/09/2005 5:51:44 PM PDT by texanforbush

Hi ~ I wanted to let you know that my dear sister, Tammy, passed away unexpectedly on June 30th. She had gastric bypass surgery on June 27, came home from the hospital on June 29th and passed away in the early morning hours of June 30th.

I'm not exactly sure of Tammy's username (something like "texaswarriorprincess") Tammy often talked about her involvement in this site and our family felt we should notify you of her death.

We lost our Dad in October, 2004. I know Tammy shared the news w/ you of my Dad voting prior to his death. He voted from the back of an ambulance while in hospice care.

We are shocked and deeply saddened by her sudden death. She is survived by our Mom, 2 sisters, one brother, and her two daughters.

Please pray for our family.

I am so sorry for you. She will be missed.

She just doesn't look like a candidate for gastric bypass.

I am so sorry for your loss. I remember your sister from the Daily Dose threads. The story of your father is so inspiring. Here is one of my favorite poems- a rose for the Texas flower, if you will...

The Rose Beyond the Wall

Near a shady wall a rose once grew, 
Budded and blossomed in God's free light, 
Watered and fed by the morning dew, 
Shedding it's sweetness day and night.

As it grew and blossomed fair and tall, 
Slowly rising to loftier height, 
It came to a crevice in the wall 
Through which there shone a beam of light.


Onward it crept with added strength 
With never a thought of fear or pride, 
It followed the light through the crevice's length 
And unfolded itself on the other side.

The light, the dew, the broadening view 
Were found the same as they were before, 
And it lost itself in beauties new, 
Breathing it's fragrance more and more.


Shall claim of death cause us to grieve 
And make our courage faint and fall?
Nay! Let us faith and hope receive-- 
The rose still grows beyond the wall, 

Scattering fragrance far and wide 
Just as it did in days of yore, 
Just as it did on the other side, 
Just as it will forevermore.

~ A. L. Frink ~

Thanks Lijahsbubbe. She was much too young for this. Can't believe she's gone.

I'm just sick reading this about our sweet friend. Those pictures of her dad voting when he was so very ill and near death will remain with me always.

And we listen to people complain they had to stand in line for a little while, and this man voted in an ambulance.

Very well said, for a "basic" non-believer.

I am so sorry for your loss, which is our loss too. How very tragic.

I remember reading her posts.

May she rest in peace and may God give you peace and strength to cope with her loss.
