There is a beautiful young woman in her early 40's that is facing imminent death. I take her communion several evenings a week. Last night, when I walked into her living room, I could hear her 'goodbye' thoughts to a friend. It was so difficult to hear someone express their last emotions/thoughts to someone they care about.
This is for her family.

What a difficult moment - hearing the heart wrenching good-byes. The family will cherish the card, especially knowing that you carried Holy Communion to her. It must be quite hard for you - you're a kind and generous lady. Beautiful card.

Oh Wow! Anne this is such a serene and very beautiful sympathy card. Love how you double stamped the image. I might just have to case this as I had a cousin pass away this week and it was so unexpected. Sorry about that very young woman. So sweet of you to do what you do for her. TFS :0)

Oh Anne, what a tragic situation. I know you are so much comfort for her, even though it hurts you so. You are the sweetest, strongest person I've met on here! Love your card...it is so peaceful looking! Awesome!
