Everything went well considering Ron died so suddenly. His wife Jackie has been very strong with emotional ups and downs.
Her daughter Georgiana read from the book of Revelations and gave a testimony about her Dad and did incredibly well. She is only 10.
Rons nephew who just got back from Iraq gave a testimony that was fantastic. He said he called Ron back in November from a cell phone and while they were talking a IED went off and the cell connection went dead. Joe instantly called him back and then asked Ron how he was doing. Ron joked and said "better than you" and laughed.
I am concerned about Jackie and the kids so we all will be staying in close communication and will be there when she needs us. Many a teary eye today but many more great memories of a real good friend to so many.
Ron was a saved man as is Jackie so the comfort knowing that Ron is in the prescence of the Lord is comforting.
Thanks for asking Dolly. We will all be alright, time heals a broken heart.
Do they live far from you? Jul I know will be strong for her.
It is so hard to release the earthly ties. we KNOW & we believe they are with God but miss them so.. this is the story that has unfolded for decades & decades..
Painful farewells to those we love in the faith.
and it will go on until this age closes
My prayers go out to Jackie and the children..and to all of you who loved Ron.
Dear Rus, I am sorry to hear of the loss in your family.
Jackie is blessed to have you caring for her. I can't imagine what people without faith do in times like this. In grief, God is all we have.
BTW, my great-grandmother was named Georgeanne. They called her Georgie.
