Life is too short...
I have come to grips with the fact that life IS too short! This is my friends husband who passed away on Sunday night. He was ONLY 46! This was him and I at our annual holiday party...it was late(I had a little too much to drink...note the deer in the head light eyes and my head is pushed forward) We had such a great time that night. That was the first and only time we met...my friend is a girlfriend from Garden Club. We only meet the husbands at certain fuctions...but Rox and hit it off from day one! We clicked! She came to our party with her husband and we clicked too! He fit right in to our crazy party and was like an old frined from another life time...Rox and her husband and Jeff and I collect antiques...so instantly we hit it off! I see Rox at all the Garden club fuctions and look forward to catching up on the family news and of course we would always talk about our beloved husbands!
Today I went to Eric's wake... something I should not have been doing since he is way too young to have passed away. It was very sad...she looked so sad...her beloved has passed away...we hugged for what seemed like a lifetime...she told me how he had so much fun at our party and meeting my parents and spending time with our friends. He made quite an impression...I had many friends call me and ask who it was that passed and they all remembered him...that is the kind of guy...one you could never forget...he was that great of a guy. So before you go to bed tonight...thank god for what you have and who you have in your life...I thank god every night for blessing me with such a wonderful husband and family...
THIS I KNOW...GOD NEEDED HELP IN HEAVEN...HE IS WORKING ON A NEW TOWN AND NEED SOMEONE TO BE IN CHARGE...HE NEEDED ERIC...I ALSO KNOW HE WILL ALWAYS BE A PART OF OUR LIFE HERE ON EARTH AND WILL ALWAYS BE WITH HIS FAMILY!

I was thinking of you today, hoping you were doing ok. Thinking of your friend too - I can't imagine that kindof loss. Just had a thought - Maybe God did need help with a special project, help in bringing your baby to you. My prayers are with you.
Awwwww!!! I can tell just by looking at him, he was a sweetheart! Just the look on his face. You know how you just can tell by looking at someone.I will say a prayer tonight for him, his family and you. Sorry, you lost such a great friend!
My thoughts and prayers are with you... this is a terrible loss, but you are right that God has special plans for him. Unfortunately, he left this earthly world too soon for all of those who loved him so...
