Life is Precious

This week has been a difficult one for many reasons. I have been reminded of how precious life is and how important it is that we stay connected with each other. Yesterday was my brother Clark's birthday and although I miss him so much, I am reminded of all the great things he did in his life. Clark was always concerned about others and their needs. He would have given the shirt on his back if you asked. He took care of my Grandfather in the last days of his battle with cancer. He would take him to his doctor appointments with no complaint even though my Grandpa was unable to walk on his own. Clark made sacrifices for many people and was always looking for a way to serve. We love and miss you much!
I pray that those who also lost a family member this week may remember all the great things they accomplished in their life and celebrate the short time they did have with them. More on the blacksters later...
