"Life, long or short,
Is a journey towards Paradise
There is our fatherland
There is our real home
There is our appointment!
Jesus is waiting for us
In Paradise
Never forget this supreme
And consoling truth."

Pope John Paul II
June 14, 1979

I'll try to remember this, live this.  Not easy these days, but it is true ...the Truth.  We are heading
to this place ...the promised land.  I will see Phoebe there, I am sure.  How many days till then? Only God
knows the answer to that.  My job now is to live each day, moment grabbing hold of the graces granted, using the gifts and talents given me, and treasuring the blessings of my children, husband and friends.  That's a good bit to keep me busy and focused...thankfully.

Eternal rest grant unto Phoebe and let perpetual light shine upon her.  May she rest in peace, Amen
