Sad Saturday

Dear Baby,

Tomorrow is a sad day for one of Mommy's church friend and co-Sunday school teacher. Her name is Debbie Dugan. Tomorrow is the Memorial Service for her husband Sean. He passed away this week :( I'm still not sure as to what the cause was but Pastor Mary said Sean died in his sleep. Debbie tried to wake him up Monday night and he was already gone. Isn't that sad? I am truly, truly sad for her. She and Sean have 2 young boys Andrew and Noah and I can't even imagine what they're going through right now.

A lot of people will say that they would want to die in their sleep because you won't be suffering or won't 'feel' any pain. But then what about the other person? What's Debbie feeling? What did she feel when she found her husband dead? Did she automatically think, 'oh good, he died the way he should with no pain and suffering' or was she hurt and confused and sad and angry that the love of her life is just there...not moving and not breathing and GONE? Gosh...that is just terrible.

Anyways, Mommy and Daddy will be there for the Memorial service tomorrow and give our support and prayers for Debbie and her family. I already know I'll be an emotional wreck but Debbie needs to know and see that so many people are here for her. I know it's just not the same and I know that she would do anything to have her husband back but I'm hoping that all the love and support from friends and family will somehow make her feel better...even just a little bit. I also know she has her 2 boys who will give her strength to move on and live her life but I know hard it's going to be for her. I hope Sean will look down on her and the boys from 'Heaven' and be their 'Angel'
