Janet Ward - 1927 - 2011

Dear family and friends,

feeling like dancing

For those of you who may not have heard, we received the sad news that Ronnie's mom Janet Ward (aka Tutu) passed away this morning. We had so hoped that we would be able to see her when we went home for Christmas. We are currently in the process of trying to get our tickets changed to come home 2 weeks earlier than originally planned. Please pray for Ronnie and the rest of the family and also that the logistics will work out so that we can make it home in time for the funeral. We thank God for giving us a wonderful mother, grandmother and mother-in-law all these many years!!! We are blessed.

Since I won't be blogging for awhile, please accept these early wishes for a very blessed Christmas. It is because of Christ's coming and the assurance we have in Him that we can experience peace in times such as this. We love you all and look forward to seeing some of you very soon!

Love,
Jan & Ronnie
