Mervin,
I want to express my heartfelt sympathy for you, Debbie & Steve, Rick & Angie and all of your grandchildren. As I reflect on the memories of more than 44 years (really that long)we have shared our life journey with you and Christina. Some of the highlights for me include:
Christina offering to make Karen’s flower girl dress to match the bridesmaid’s dresses
Christina’s enthusiasm about creativity in decorating, costuming and arranging flowers
Christina’s creation of tranquil comfort zones even in the chaos of moving
Christina’s willingness to spend time listening and caring
Christina patiently teaching me about the family “culture”
Sharing tips and recipes
Sharing road trips and hotel space
Working, growing personally, relationally and as leaders (in ways honoring our personality type)
Christina’s devotion to you and building your relationship
Christina’s passion to reconnect with her siblings and build those relationships
Christina’s gifts at honoring, deferring and edifying others
Christina encouraging sports activities for all the children and foster children
Christina’s active modeling of loving respectful behavior
Christina teaching me how to apply makeup and choose hair styles
The four of us developing mutual respect and friendships shared
Sharing joys and frustrations of parenting
Sharing our mutual love for each other as friends and as sister’s in law
Encouraging (helping to put the heart back in) each other
Fireworks at your place after picnics
Christina and you encouraging me to risk trying new and strange foods
Cherishing Life Sharing Forever
