In Memorandum



Sitting down to write this tribute to Anna, i know it will be lacking. i know there are things about her that i will never know, things that i have never seen, such as her face when she laughs, the eyes lighting up when she speaks of her kids, the sound of her laughter. I just know that i have to say good bye to a good friend, one I've never met in person, only online, yet she's closer than some of the people that i do know in real life.

She was a wonderful mother, devoted, loving wife and a great friend. She was a part of our RCC gals. She was a part of the Jan 06 BBC ladies. She was our goofy. She will be missed.

Such a simple procedure went so wrong, and now she's gone, leaving a gaping hole in peoples hearts and lives. She was someone that people enjoyed talking to, someone who exuded joy.

She had 3 handsome boys and one beautiful girl. All very young, she was very young. This is a tragedy that can't be undone, one that will leave marks on all involved. I know she passed her strength on to her children and that they will not forget her but they will know she's watching them from heaven and she will always love them and be proud of them.

I pray that in time that the ache in their hearts will ease and they will be comforted that she is watching over them from heaven.

I know its hard to understand why things happen, but I know God has a plan and its hard to understand his plans when we can't see what he can see. What we see is that its unfair that she had to go through everything she's been through in the last year +, only to leave too soon.

I am not adequate to write this for her, i just want to say that she is loved and will be missed very much.

RIP dear Anna, you are loved and will be missed!!
