My Aunt

I received terrible news last night. My Aunt Kathy, my mom's younger sister, passed away in her sleep. This was very unexpected and is obviously hard on everyone. My parents were able to find flights out of Austria and are on their way there now. The viewing will be Friday and the funeral on Saturday. It has been very hard being so far away. I have searched frantically for flights to get back, but they are all full & by the time I can get on a flight I won't arrive till Sunday evening. Jesse is still in Thailand & was just waiting to see if we could find something. So needless to say I am very sad that I will not be able to be there with my family during this time.

Please pray for my family during this difficult time. My aunt is leaving behind her husband, Ron; her two kids, Matthew & Katie; Matthew's wife Melissa & their two kids; my grandmother, and my mom. She will be sorely missed. If you've ever met her you know her energy for life was contagious. The only comfort we hold on to is knowing that she is with the Lord. Thank you for your prayers.
