My son Bret said an amazing thing to me when he telephoned me at the hospital from Virginia. He said, "I can feel God's presence there in your room right now." And it was truey He was therel Friends in my church have meant so much to me. Their visits to the hospital have been a big support. I'm really enthused about the T. Roger Brown Fellowship Hall which will provide more space on the back of the church. The need for meeting space is something Roger and I have discussed often. I had such a good time at the Christmas Bazaar which was held to raise funds for the Fellowship Hall. I visited with Enfielders and former Enfielders (once an Enfielder always an Enfielder) while Bridgette shopped around the Grange and Community Buildings. Roger was always so much better than I am at telling stories and expressing feelings. I wish I had his way with words. Although I am really not ready to leave my family, my church and friends, I know I will be happy with the Lord, with Roger, Dad and others who have gone before. . I've tried to enjoy every day with my little grandaughter Kelsey while I lived with Bridgette and Gordie in Hammonds - port these last few months. They have spoiled me and I have loved it. They planned a beautiful'Celebration of Life" for me on my birthday in October. It was such a wonderful day with so many good friends and family. Since I've been in the hospital, Bridgette, my sisters and other kind people have taken turns staying with me at night so I've never had to be without a loved one during the long dark hours. I can never thank people enough for their cards, visits and flowers. My hospital room has always had a fresh supply of plants and flowers from my mother, friends and relatives. You have all made this a truly blessed Christmas for me. 0 • 0 0 }. .oP .M ,v, lz. v. ems. E .a Iri Gear Enfield Community, d ! I Have you heard about SchoolBased Shared Derision kMa •ina?
