Slooooooow down Mamo....it's almost impossible to believe that my 1st grandchild is 5 today. Yes, Victor Samuel Beeler turned five today. Victor was born 6 days before my dad passed. It seems like yesterday to me he was born and yet it seems like an eternity that I have seen my dad. I miss him terribly. No doubt in my mind he would have been just as wonderful as a great grandfather as he was grandfather (Pop). Papa Beeler is doing a great job and daddy would be proud. I've always thought of lil Victor as my "saving Grace." God was so good to send him to our family when He did. He is such a blessing to all of us. Here are some of the pix taken tonight at Vic and Marla's. They had Victor and I and Mamo Jam for dinner and cake. Tomorrow is the BIG CELEBRATION with other family members and friends. Check in again later for more pix and see how blessed they are with such a loving family and so many friends.
Happy Birthday Doll, I love you so much.

The Loss of a dear friend.

On July 3 a dear, dear friend of ours, Chips Cronen returned to Heaven. He will be missed. We pray and ask for prayers for his wife Barbra and sons.
I came across this scripture that seems to be appropriate for Chips, it reads from Ephesians 6: 16-18
"At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the evil one. And accepting salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you. Do all this in prayer, asking for God's help. Pray on every occassion, as the Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for God's people."

This is just one thought that gives "light" to the life of Chips Cronen. He was truly a prayer warrior. I've counted on his prayers many times and will continue to do so..
