Dad’s viewing was December 6, 2009 from 5 – 9pm. My sisters, brothers, and I were not sure what to do about flowers and were blessed to see all the love gifts of flowers that came in from all the family and friends that loved Dad. Many family and friends showed and blessed our family tonight. Thank you to all!

Doris and Jack are treasured friends to my parents, Richard and Nancy Bowman, and my family too for several years now. Russ and I have had the pleasure of sharing many meals and family gatherings with Jack and Doris. They’ve become a significant part of the family. All Our love goes out to Jack during this time. Doris’s health has been taking a turn for the worse the last couple years, with some ups and downs, but Jack steadfastly stayed by her side through it all. What a team they’ve been. Please pray with us for the Lord to comfort him in a special way today. Thank you for your prayers.

Juls & Family

If you’re grieving for your pet, here’s a wonderful article that may be encouraging to you. I found it on a Pet Loss Support website.

I apologize for not having the exact date of her death or any information regarding burial arrangements. In January, I learned that Pat passed away by word of my mother. Pat is survived by her children, Richard, James, John, and an older son that I never met. I believe she had some grandchildren by her older son and John, but I’ll have to double check with mom.
Pat Bolin was a good friend to my mother and our family for quite some time–ever since I was little Pat was coming over to our house to hangout, eat, celebrate, etc with us. She was definitely a part of the family.

I knew her and remember her as a good woman that loved Jesus. She was tough on the outside, yet soft-hearted and a deeply caring lady. I remember her generousity and kindness that she always gave to me and my boys – Tim & Luke when they were younger. She lived through lots of hardships, health challenges, and good times too. We love you Pat and will miss you dearly. My deepest sympathies go out to Richard, James, John, and all the family.

————————————————-
I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Psalms 121
