Another Loss of someone we loved dearly

We lost a near and dear friend of our family Saturday night to cancer.  He fought long and hard and lost the battle, but we know he is no longer in any pain, and was called home.  Buster Milstead will be loved and missed dearly.  He Loved his family, his friends, and his hobby that he and my husband shared together for many years.  I knew him for 18 years, but my husband knew him for much much longer.  They worked on race cars together, and yes race them as well.  He had to approve of me before Michael married me, and was there the day that we said I do, he was also like a grandfather to my daughter who loved him dearly.  Buster we will always love and miss you, but know that your pain has ended and that you are where you should be now. I love you!!

The Healing Process

It's been a couple weeks now since I've lost my aunt, and I have to say that it has been so much harder to get over than I thought that it would be.  I miss her so much, but with the help and support of my wonderful family it has been made a lot easier.  A special thanks to my daughter's Heather and Leann, without you 2 I would still be in a really bad funk over this I love you so very much for always being there and knowing what I need.  A special thanks to my nieces Erica and Andrea, thank you as well for being there and helping me stand as strong as I can during this time, i love you both for all the call's and support you've shown me.

I'm going to be posting a song that was played at her funeral it is a song that gives me so much comfort and peace that I had to add it so enjoy it and think a little bit about it's meaning.

A very terrible time in my life

The past couple of weeks have been the most hard week's that I have had to go through in quite a long time.  I lost someone last week that meant the world to me, and honestly I don't know that it should have happened or not.  She went into the hospital a couple weeks ago for a very serious operation, but that's not what caused her to die.  Shortly after the operation which she was doing quite well after might I add something went wrong.  She somehow got a staff infection a very serious one, and as she was 82 and trying to recover from open heart surgery it just weakened her, and I lost her  This is my Aunt Joyce, someone who was full of life, love, and laughter.  She was a woman that was strong in her Faith in God, and never said a cross word to anyone, she was a very special person to me, she was like a mother to me.  I loved her dearly and will forever miss her. I can only take comfort in the fact that I know she is in a better place, and will always be in my heart.  I will always feel her around me and take comfort in knowing that she loved me unconditional and will alway's be looking down on me.


I love you Aunt Joyce and will miss you always!!
