A life well lived


This past Wednesday, my family and I went to honor the memory of my great aunt Dorothy--more or less, one of those whose prayers of 19 years helped a then 19 year old "Bubba" see his need for Christ. She had lived 96 years and more, and had spent most of those years serving those she loved in her churches--not to mention her husband of over 30 years, Albert, who died in 1990. It was a sweet, but hard, time--especially as my mother was Aunt Dorothy's favorite niece. While going through her home afterwards, my five year old daughter found this picture of my mom at...well, about age five.
Hopefully my step-dad will enjoy having a copy....
