A Tribute to our Friend

Our good friend, Jeannie, passed away today. This is a picture at Kathie's first treatment with Jeannie by her side.
Please say a prayer for Jeannie's family.

No forced version today, but my favorite is below:

Hail, Holy Queen

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary! Pray for us O Holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of Christ. Amen.


May God hold you in His hands eternally, Jeannie, and may He comfort those who weep for your passing.

Thank you so much for the tribute. It brought a tear to my eye to read this. Jeannie really enjoyed being Kathie's chemo buddy and talking and laughing with the nurses at Dr. D's office. The picture is lovely and the smile on her face is an ideal reminder of who Jeannie is.

God Bless to the DuCharmes and our family's prayers are with you as you travel to MD Anderson next week.

Check out Jeannie;s blog fo the time of her visitation.
