Saying Good Bye

Today has been a sad day for my family.

Aunt Barbara lost her battle with cancer last night.

I am not sure I have words to describe the sadness that is felt at this time by JAG, Shelby and I.

Today I have cried many tears.

I keep coming back to the word blessed.

I am blessed to have known Barbara.

I am blessed to have spent quality time with her this past summer.

I am blessed to have my butt kicked on a regular basis when attempting to challenge her in a round of words with friends – she was a pro.

I am blessed to still have a voicemail with Barbara’s lovely voice singing Happy Birthday to me a month ago.

I have been blessed by Barbara – we are all so lucky to have had her in our lives.

Please keep her daughters, Emily & Riley, in your prayers along with Grandma B (her mother), JAGdad (her brother), JAG & all of JAG’s family.

I love you Aunt Barbara…you will be missed so much!
