Last month I mentioned my dear Donna who was fighting cancer...well, she gave up the fight on Saturday, June 7th around 2:00am. My heart is broken, but I'm so glad I had a chance to visit with her one last time just 12 hours earlier. I rubbed the short white stubble on her head and kissed her fingers and cheeks, and told her how much I loved her. She said she'd try to hold on a few weeks so she could see Robin who would be visiting from Hawaii. We made plans for another visit on Monday, but that sweet girl decided to go on ahead and see what heaven is really all about! She told me during a visit a few weeks ago that she couldn't wait to see my sister Robin when she got to heaven, and ask her tons of questions. I know Robin is probably helping show her the plan of happiness right now! Donna leaves behind her husband Richard, son Bill and his wife, and her darling daughter Holly...and my boys know her nephew Brett Clarkson and his family. I can't stop thinking of how much they are missing her and it makes my pain insignificant in comparison. Lesson to learn...never miss a chance to tell those you love how you really feel - don't hold back cause you never know when you'll see them again. I've searched high and low for a picture of us and our dates at a prom in high school...but no luck. She was a doll and I'll miss her being here on earth with me so very much.
