A supporter of mine has graciously supplied me with a roundtrip plane ticket to go home and be with my family so I will be leaving Atlanta tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon and staying in Chicago until Saturday.  Praise God for this wonderful blessing and provision!

To the supporter/friend who provided: THANK YOU.  It is a beautiful thing to be part of the Body of Christ and to see it come together and meet needs. 

To my other friends, family and supporters: THANK YOU for all of your prayers and encouragement via phone and email.  Your words mean more than you know, and I praise God for each one of you.

Funeral arrangements are still being made.  I'll keep you posted, and our family will especially appreciate your prayers the day of the services.
