In 2007, I began my original website, Sonshine's Haven. In 2007, it was turned into a blog and used to keep family updated on my first husband's fight with liver cancer. He passed away November of 2009. We were married for 34+ wonderful years and this journals some of that grief process I've gone through.

I have since remarried another widower, but Mike is missed dearly, and will always be a big part of my life.

At times, all of us will be called to act as witnesses to the suffering of another. We will be unable to affect the outcome physically. Words will fail us. Prayer will seem futile. And yet, the act of bearing witness to someone else's trials is a sacred sorrow that offers and astounding glimpse of eternal joy." by Ginger Garrett

"Being willing to stay with a loved one throughout their travail, can be difficult....YES! But offering yourselves as faithful companions on a dark and dreadful journey can be an unmeasured blessing." (paraphrased by me)

Vandalism

Learned today the church I work for was vandalized last night.  The glass front doors were shattered and glass was found throughout the church.  Nothing was stolen, praise God....but what is the sense behind such meanness?!  The blessing, was the vandals were captured and are behind bars.  Makes me feel a little at ease being the pastor is on vacation for three weeks.  The door was replaced immediately, so everything is back to "looking" normal.  But a little piece of security is stolen from you when something like this occurs. 

What in the world is wrong with youth today?  They cry out for help in the most odd ways.
