My friend’s mother passed away about thirty minutes ago. She went peacefully. She’s survived by her husband, Al, her daughter, Katina, and her son, Alan, amongst many other family and friends. Marilyn was our local social services gal in the town I grew up in. She was always really funny, liked to laugh - had the best laugh ever, in fact. She gut busted. I love laughs like that. They’re the best.

Sometimes I forget God’s up there, especially when times seem particularly tough. But there are always moments when you least expect it, usually, that He sorta shines through and shows you he’s still around. Usually those moments rejeuvenate faith, and you keep hold of them until they dull again, and you need a little kick in the pants to keep you back on track. I know she’s with God in a place where the water is so very blue. I’m sure the moment she strolled into Heaven, Cally tipped her hat to her and welcomed her home. That part brings comfort, solice, and happiness. Regardless, we’ll still miss you, Marilyn. But we’ll see you again, and I know you’ll always be with us. God bless.
