Nikos, thanks again for our daily thread(bread?!) and bless you for dedicating this thread to Page Noe, our friend.
I would love to do the trivia, as I have missed this portion of our Trump Rally threads. How you work AND do these threads is amazing. Thank you.
I have been in touch with Page’s friend, Mark17, and also Marlene, Page’s wife.
Marlene has been put in an awful situation as a new widow.
Seems that Page’s hospital bill came to $2,500, or 116,000 Philippine pesos. Marlene does not have the money.
So the hospital refuses to issue a death certificate to her until they are paid in full.
The funeral home, to which the hospital released the body, refuses to do a cremation until they receive a death certificate.
So, Marlene is in a Catch-22 right now.
Mark17 is doing what he can. Marlene has been rebuffed in her attempts to deal with the local government officials to intervene.She is also contacting Page’s oldest son in the States, as Page had three children, for help.
Marlene certainly does not deserve this burden, but she, in her Christian faith, is trying to work through it.
She and Mark17’s wife, Menierva, who is Marlene’s sister, are making another attempt to convince the hospital to release the death certificate.
What Marlene needs now is our prayers for intervention and for resources.Page did not have a lot of money, and Marlene’s family is very poor.
We pray for Trump and Pence, everyday, so I am asking our fellow Trump Train passengers to pray for Marlene today.
Mark17 is on the job, and Marlene checks FR using Page’s handle, WVKayaker. I have asked Mark to keep us informed.
Things are different in the Philippines, and the corruption is more evident than it is here in the US. Being a woman in this society also makes it more difficult for Marlene to prevail.
I cannot imagine being a new widow and being in this situation must be like.
With our prayers and with our Lord, Marlene will prevail.
Maybe we are part of the solution—but we have to see how the situation unfolds.
What we all can do today is pray for Marlene, and for her to prevail, and that resources are released for her.
The local church and friends and family are involved, but they have very little.
Here on earth, Page was a born again Christian. Now, he is alive with Jesus Christ.
Our Lord owns the cattle on a thousand hills, the Bible tells us. Let us pray to Him for Divine intervention.
I am pinging some of Page’s friends on the Religion forum pages as well.
Jim, perhaps this can be Page’s tribute thread for the Freeper Memorial Wall.
Thanks to all. Page was a special member of our Trump community. He turned to us for help in his final battle.
Let us remember him well.
Nikos, if you could ping our members to this post, I would appreciate it.
Is there a way for FReepers to contribute?
Prayers said, for dear Marlene, in memory of our sweet FRiend, wvkayaker ((Page)).
Please rest in peace, Dear Friend.
I have no doubt Marlene will have all that’s needed as she wades through these issues in obtaining the documentation she needs.
May she know the love of God as she walks now and leans on Him as her provider.
You need to set up a fund site for those who want to help.
