Passing over

Last night, Susan began passing over from her familiar, temporary home to the home in Heaven the Lord has prepared for her. She is actively passing away now in that final course that can last hours or days. Her body so clearly is failing; yet she’s still so lovely. 

Our family and friends have been gathering with us to visit, grieve and say goodbye, or at least to get used to the idea. It’s hard. We’re sad and we have peace. Susan has peace. We feel so loved and supported and thankful. We treasure God’s presence, welcome his timing, and pray for her comfort and ours.
