Marguerite and Family: This past 32 days has been exceptionally trying for all of our family. Losing 3 neices within 32 days has certainly put to the test our family endurance,family support system and definately our knowledge that God had held us all in the palm of His Loving Hands. A family without Christ would have buckled under the stress we have been though---our small family of 300 holds dear each others' heart and backs as we were taught by loving parents. Rainy was special to me from childhood--as young adults we shared a love of poetry and would send each other poems. I will always remember her beautiful auburn hair, her porcelain skin and the twinkle in her eyes. She had a kind word for all and was very concerned about her other 3 cousins with cancer. When she came through the brain cancer in Albany with flying colors, I hoped we would have a better prognosis,yet God had other plans for her life in His Kingdom. I will miss my 'rainy raindancer' . Fly freely with the angels and your cousins, hang out together and "cover each others' wings"!! We love and miss you.
