Sunday was a day of remembering for me and my family. It was on Sunday December 9, 2007 when my sister, Mary, passed away from a hard battle with cancer. I was not by her bed when she took her last breath but was only one room away from her. I remember making the call to Chuck at church to tell him the news. There are so many times that I think of her and what she would do in certain situations. She was always a positive person and loved her family and her God. On Sunday morning, I was 'greeted' by the buzz of my phone with an email. It was from my sister, remembering Mary on this 5 year anniversary. She asked us to share our memories, if we wanted to and live each day like Mary would have lived. It was moving and emotional to read through everyone's memories of her and how much she influenced their lives in a positive way. Almost every one said they remember how she loved to sing, play the piano and glorify God with her music. She is still missed by all that knew her and I am thankful for the precious moments that I was able to spend with her.
