Prayerathon to aid my sister, Libby, aka Double Umbrella in her glorious leap into our Lord and Savior's arms.
Libby was a long time, passionate lurker on Free Republic. She read every political thread from beginning to end.She knew many of you in depth even though you didn't know she was there.
You gave her great delight,intellectual stimulation and hope for the future. That such fine people had a gathering place was a delight to her.
She was an avid Tea Partier and participated in person locally through the whole health care debacle.
She was a Renaissance woman, artist, pianist, nurse. She read voraciously, especially things political.
She joined under the name of Double Umbrella but her posting history is limited to just 1 post. Glioblastoma took her language skills. She always understood but the ability to speak coherently was taken from her.
She has fought the good fight, she stayed active through therapy going to church and bible studies until a stroke took her right side and locked her in.
Her earthly race is run, she is still minimally responsive but her ability to swallow is gone. She still opens her eyes with a kiss to the brow or cheek but she mostly peacefully sleeps.
Please participate in praying her across to eternity and into the loving arms of Jesus.
Prayed for Libby and her family...
Prayers up!
Prayer’s hon. For all the family. My oldest friend was diagnosed with a glastoblioma last October and the things you describe are things we too are living with now. God Bless you all. And Godspeed Double Umbrella
Your words are a beautiful tribute to your wonderful sister. The request for prayer is being answered as we pray for our fellow FReeper, Double Umbrella; that God soon will gather her into his arms forever. May His peace fill your spirits and comfort your hearts.
Praying for Libby’s peaceful passing into the arms of Her Lord.
May your dear sister depart from her earthly bonds peacefully and without pain, and see the Lord face to face and feel His loving embrace.
Thank you for telling us about her.
prayers sent, in Jesus name...
