In Loving Memory of Iris


My sister Iris passed away on Saturday. Her daughter (my niece) had passed away last October and I dont think she could ever bear the tragedy of losing her only daughter. Her death was due to diabetes but in our heart of hearts we know it was because she died of a broken heart. If you could pray for my brother in law I would be grateful. I can't imagine the grief and sorrow of losing a daughter and then your wife in the short span of 8 months.
Don't take for granted what you have today... it could be gone tomorrow. Hug your family and friends and tell them how much you appreciate and love them.

    Lil, I am so sorry. I remember when your niece passed. I am praying for you all. I don't know how people who don't know the Lord make it through things like this, but I'm so glad I can pray for the comforter to help you through this time. Love, Veneta

    Oh, I am so sorry to read this! I don't know exactly when it was, but it looks like a couple of weeks. I'm going to presume that prayers are still needed. Well, aren't they always? For you and your brother-in-law.
