We have tentatively scheduled Janet's memorial service for Monday afternoon. Plans will be finalized tomorrow after Pam arrives back and we'll post the time and place some time tomorrow.
The Lord is so good to have allowed Janet to slip peacefully into His presence after some very difficult days. The doctors and nurses gave Janet such good care both before and after her passing. They treated her with such honor and respect. She often expressed her appreciation to all of those involved in her care and they could see that her faith was real even in the midst of pain, suffering and eminent death.
Thanks to all of you who have prayed for Janet and for those of us who have been caring for her. It has been a wonderful journey that none of us would have wished for but none of us would have wanted to miss! The Lord has been so gracious to each of as we worked together through the past six weeks. The Lord has knit out hearts together in such a beautiful way! We are going to miss Janet's beautiful smile, her gracious spirit, her love of life and everything beautiful, and even the way she bossed us around! After her death we looked at each other and said, "How are we going to know what to do without Janet here to tell us what needs done!" Actually, she made her wishes known and we'll still be following orders for awhile! (Deb)

thanks so much for letting us know everyday how janet was doing. praise the Lord for her swift homegoing. it was so neat to hear about how you all pulled together as a team to surround her and take care of her until she went home. i am sure you are all exhausted. God bless you in the days to come as you get all the funeral arrangements done. i'm sure that will be a lot of work. janet's testimony was outstanding and so is yours as you have shown the love of Christ plainly to those around you. love, leann
ReplyDeleteWell, we her family here in the US can't begin to thank you for all that you did for our Janet. When you took her rocking chair to the hospital for her, that is exactly what we as family would have done. That really touched our hearts and made us feel that we were helping care for her.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless all of you and may God's peace be with you.
