You just never know

We had a death in are family last night. I got the call when I came in from work.

Mona  was my grandma's cousin and a very funny woman who brought smiles to us at the holidays and cookouts. 

This picture is of her and her husband Jesse. Over 1 year ago at my grandmas 80th birthday party.

They have been married for over 50 years and have one son together.

    

She has been sick on and off for many years. 

A very talented woman who loved to crochet and make things with her hands untill the arthritis got ahold of her and she could no longer use her hands any longer....It slowely took over her whole body...Then she had other complications...

  

Another chair will be empty on cookouts and holiday events. Another laugh will not be heard...

I have noticed at the holidays the table gets bigger

We never know how long we have.... 

We never know how much pain someone is in.... 

We never know how many lives we touch.... 

 We never know what are last thought will be...

We never know when its the last time to see someone.... 

We never know what are last words will be...

So many things we just will never know.... 

Tears will be shed and life's will change.  A family has lost a Mother, a Wife, a Grandma and a Friend.

Life stops for no one and the world keeps moving on. 

Continue to smile and count your daily blessings. 

and help others find theirs..
