I wanted to tell everyone that my wife went to be with Jesus Monday morning. She is having a wonderful time but will be missed by many. The kids are doing ok. I guess we all knew it was coming and God has prepared us. It was still a shock initially. I picked her up as she was slumped over on the side of her wheel chair and she didn't wake up. Both of my daughters were standing there and I looked at them. I guess we all knew right then that she was gone. My oldest daughter, Christie, called 911 and we cried a lot but then slowly got busy with the arrangements. The fire dept., police, and funeral home all came and her body was taken away. It was empty, like Jesus' tomb. She was no longer there- her spirit gone to be with Jesus. A women, sent by God came the night before, and sang and prophecied over her and she said that she would lie down and rest- something which she hadn't been able to do for months. She sang much more-it was beautiful-I wish I had recorded it. I see how helpless this world really is-even the Drs. and medical marvel machines that we have are helpless. They are very inept and ineficienct in even discovereing cancer. She lived with the cancer cells for over a year before they were finally discovered. They treated her for asthma and everything else but the real cause went undetected. Maybe they knew and were afraid to tell us?! Anyway-our trust has to be in Jesus-the great healing physician. He alone knew what was happening and he decided to take her home. I have to trust Him and His decision. I need to go & find a final resting place for her body-a trip to the cemetary. I won't be having Rangers this week as we will be busy getting things ready for the funeral and memorial service. I don't want to be greedy & be sad for its only our lose-not hers. Jesus, help me to be strong & celebrate with her as she meets Jesus face to face and feels no more pain. Thank you everyone for your prayers, Bob Simons Outpost 48 Tucson, AZ.
