Are You having a Easter Party?

Visiting with our dear Liz yesterday in Orlando was a heart-rendering experience.

Liz is now on Hospice care and time may be short with this precious one we love.

Charlie, Lynn, Chad and I called ahead to her Assisted Living facility but we were unprepared, emotionally, for her physical condition.

Liz has been a '2nd Mom' to Charlie and he not only loves her as such but respects her place in his life of opportunity, teacher and friend.

It was extremely hard for him to see her in this suffering condition since our last visit.

Lynn and Chad being there brought he and I both great comfort as it did to Liz herself.

The amazing thing is that even though her chain of thought drifted in and out, her sense of humor remained intact!

Liz always has a quick, dry sense of humor...

It still exists!

Her 'one liners' showed her personality as strong today as it did in her youthful days of zest and fullness of life.

What a joy it was to see that part of her alive and well .

A young dear friend, Kim, who has been faithful to her for 4 years showed up (by Divine Appointment) and we all formed a 'love circle' around Liz and prayed from hearts of love for her and peace for all the family.

Lynn, a prayer warrior, prayed explicit prayers in all our behalf for this gracious lady we love.

Yes, the story of EASTER is being made real and relevant this week for us.

We know that 'Sunday's coming'......

Sunday is a celebration called Resurrection Day!

Life as we know it on earth is only a glimpse of the 'Real Life' after our journey on earth.

This is what we carry in our hearts as Christians and members of Liz's family.

The Good Life is not just for the here and now....

it is FOR E V E R!

We dedicate this Easter Family time to our dear Elizabeth who so eloquently told us yesterday that she still believed in 'family party time' because "you know that I was married to Victor!"

May we all Celebrate Real Life this Easter.

Family Love is something to Celebrate every day...this is the best reason to have 'a party'!
