The emails, phone calls, text messages and Facebook posts over the last two months have been too many. Too many people in our little world are passing away. Parents of friends, friends of friends, friends of parents, people we know well, people we don't. People who have touched our lives in some way.
Earlier this week, our oldest daughter's Sunday School teacher passed away. It is a shock to the entire community, not just our church. Loss has been prevalent in our lives the last few years, but this is the first time that someone in her little life will no longer be there.
On Saturday, I will be taking her to her first funeral. She is excited to go, as she doesn't really know what a funeral is. It will be interesting to watch her learn, as well as see how she will say goodbye to Miss Mary.
