You may have noticed things have been quiet here lately. A few pre-scheduled posts aside, I haven’t been reading much in the past month. My 5 month old grandson Jack was in the hospital for over a month and passed away on October 6. As ill as he was, we expected him to get better and go home. I feel so fortunate that my husband and I were able to be with Jack and my daughter and son-in-law during most of the past several weeks. If you pray, please keep Jack’s parents and our entire family in your prayers.
Jack’s funeral was outdoors not too far from his home in Maine. The photo was taken by my sister before the service.
Oh Mary I am so so sorry.
Thank you, Peggy.

Mary, you know how heartbroken I am (and my dad) are over the loss of Baby Jack. There are no words to help ease the pain of the loss but you know I’m here if you need anything at all. In this past month that special boy touched many hearts, including my own. I pray for K&J that they find strength in each other and for you and your hubby every day. Love you my friend.

Dearest Mary,
Not a day goes by that I don’t stop and think about sweet Jack and your entire family. I pray often for all of you and many of my friends do too. Several of them ask specifically as to how you are doing and to let me know that they’re thinking of you and your family. Just know that you all are loved!
