A high school classmate passed away this week. She was a wonderful lady. I can't recall ever seeing her without a smile on her face. Her daughter Kathleen said it best:
"Patricia
Marx passed away on May 8th 2013, at home after a year and a half long
battle with cancer. She remained strong in spirit, even as the illness
weakened her body.
Those that knew her know her by her faith in
God, her compassion for others, her dedication to caring for the dying
as a Hospice nurse, and teaching future generations of nurses to
integrate these "caring" skills into their own practice.
Pat was a
loving spouse, mom, friend, teacher, and colleague to many. She will be
lovingly remembered by us all. Rest in peace, out of pain, and out of
the grip of illnesses forever. We love you."
Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no
more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more
pain: for the former things are passed away.
Goodbye for now, Pat, until we meet again.
