Since the passing of my Grandma I have spent so much time at home the last few weeks. Heidi, who was my Grandma's exchange student from Brazil, got to make it in time before she passed. I love Heidi and miss her so much. She now lives in Boston. We got to spend some time together as she and her 2 precious kids came down and stayed at my mom's house. My Grandma loved her so much! She is my sister! I am so thankful for my family. My mom and I have the most special bond ever! We are so close, like sisters! But we are sister in Christ! We have shared our growth in the Lord together. I cannot express how much I love her! I think she knows! How truly blessed I am to call her my mom!

Your mom is a special woman, to me also! We never were lacking in laughs when she visited. I miss you being next door, especially now, and I miss her too. Hug her for me!
You mother is blessed also to have a precious daughter like you. I can't wait to give you a big hug next week. EMily
Tambrey - I had heard your grandmother was not doing well so I did some searching around on the internet to try to find out more details. I found your blog in the process. I am so saddened to hear about the passing of Mrs. Opal and the struggles that she had recently incountered. I too am glad to know that she is now with Ralph and in the presence of our Lord. I do think about you and the Tolar/Ringer family that I used to know from time to time and wonder how you all are doing. What a blessing it was for me to see what the Lord has been doing in your life. I wish I had time to tell you all the wonderful things He has done for me my family over these years. I too am happily married to Julie. She stays home with our two wonderful, beautiful, and very active girls. We have been very involved in church ever since we relocated for the first time with my job about 11 years ago. Both Julie and I have never been closer to the Lord than we are now. Don't get me wrong, I am far from where I need to be and He's still working on me in several areas. However, it is my desire to be used by Him in whatever capasity He desires and lead my family that way as well. As you know, there is no other place where you can find lasting peace and joy in this life! I am still with Dow AgroSciences and have taken on several different jobs over the years. We have relocated to MS, IN, and now IL and I have moved up in the company. Dow has been awesome to me over the years. We hope to relocate back to Indanapolis, IN (our corportate office) as we loved living there more than any other place. We had a great church family and still frequently visit our friends there. I suspect that you know that Gods plan was spelled out long ago for us to be as we are today. In hindsight, I would not have it any other way. What learning and growth opportunities those things in my past have done for me. What a blessing now to see that you and I are both closer to Him and are seeking His will for our lives. May God continue to bless you and your family. Hank King

Tambrey - Sorry if I left you the same message multiple times. I didn't know how this comment thing worked. Take care. Hank
How sweet you are Tambrey. Your mom is blessed to have such a loving daughter. I hope you are all doing well.
