I just found your blog...What a wonderful tribute. <br />I just found your blog and sat and read each post written. You and your family has been through so much the past few months. What a blessing Amy was in your life and the lives of your children. How thankful we are for the knowledge of the gospel plan that family will be together forever. I hope that you are able to feel peace and comfort during the next days, weeks, and months and years. <br /><br />My family endured almost the same experience your family has been through. My mother passed away 1 day short of three months after she was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma (a cough was her only symptom). It is an amazing experience, helping someone you love and care for so much leave this mortal existence. It is an experience I never want to do again, but wouldn't trade for the world. We did some of the same things that your sweet Amy did - Bears, Letters, small tokens or gifts. I wanted to encourage just one thing. The Build-a-bears my mom made for each of her grandchildren are priceless treasures to us. I encourage you, if you haven't done this already, to record the messages Amy left. Of the 14 bears my mother made (July 2008), 2 no longer work. One bear was dropped and another just stopped working. We were heart broken when this happened. I am sure your children will want listen to their mother's message over and over for the rest of their lives. So, if you can, I encourage you to record another copy for them.<br /><br />Again, my prayers are with you and your family. I know your sweet wife and mother will be close, especially in the times you need her most.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13561456843011758466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6055542776059107391.post-27464692959381730672010-07-17T01:02:50.148-06:002010-07-17T01:02:50.148-06:00Thank you for your inspiring message and I will do...Thank you for your inspiring message and I will do my best with Amy guiding me.

I am inspired by her life as you write about it, and it gives me the desire to serve all the more as I read about her continual service on behalf of others. I know this is only the begining of your grieving at her loss, but I pray that Heavenly Father will allow her legacy of service to ease your pain and loss.
