Monday

 In Loving Memory of Wendy Susan Esher 
1963-2010
We'll miss you, Wendy. Looking forward to seeing you again in heaven.
Love you, Karen. xo


My sister passed away Sunday morning. This sad and unexpected news has my family and me feeling as though we are walking about in a surreal world. Am taking a break; will see you soon.

Blessings,
Karen

  14. Dear Karen...It was with great sadness that I read the news of Wendy's untimely and unexpected death. My greatest sadness, of course, is for you and all your family. The death of a dear, loved one is never easy but when it's unexpected and when the loved one is so young, it's doubly hard.

    Of course, I'm happy for Wendy. She is now in the other realm of life----peaceful---joyful---without pain of any kind, physical or emotional---and in the arms of her Creator. How awesome must that be?

    She will be close to you always and she will continue to live through you and your family...your laughter, your kindness, and all the ways you will live your lives.

    May the Lord gently bless each of you and hold you all in the palm of His hand throughout this painful week and all the days of your lives. Susan

  22. Dear Friend Karen,

    I am so sorry to hear of your loss. "Walking around in a surreal world"... that is such a realistic description of the way it feels... I remember a year and a half ago when my sister died as if it were yesterday... and her death was not unexpected. My heart truly goes out to you.

    In friendship and sympathy,
    Saloma

  28. Karen, I am so very, very sorry for your loss. I am praying hard for you and your family. How things can change in the blink of an eye. I know that I know that your sister is with Jesus right now. She's happy and content. It's you and your family that are suffering. I pray that Jesus surround you with his love. I pray that he carry you through this, because you couldn't do it without him bearing this heavy load for you. I love you like a sister. Please know I'm crying tears for you right now. I wish I was close. I would hold you and cry with you.

    Love you soooooo much. Praying...
