Memory Eternal: My Husband’s Aunt Joy

At 11:27pm Sunday evening, my husband’s Aunt Joy passed away.

She had a malignant and rapidly growing tumor
that took over the speech area her brain.
Aunt Joy was surrounded by her loved ones at that time.

From her husband, Uncle Chuck: “At 11:27 p.m., my bride and the love of my life was released from her earthly body and was ushered into God’s presence.
I released her from my loving arms and tender hands into the eternal care of my heavenly father.  Oh how I miss her but I know she is no longer suffering the indignity of others caring for all her personal needs.  I’m sad she’s gone but glad she’s is with the Lord and loved ones in heaven.”

Please be in prayer for my husband’s family and all of those who loved Aunt Joy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just as the thief on the cross said,
Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.”
In the Orthodox Church, we say “Memory Eternal” asking God to remember us just as he did remember the thief on the cross.

We are thankful that Aunt Joy lived a devotedly Christian life.  As Uncle Chuck said, “She is now at home with the Lord.”
