These cards are going out in the mail for Mail it Monday in time for the 4th of July!
I have a couple of aunts who are 95 and 93 and I send them cards often, couldn't let the 4th go by without a little card telling them I am thinking of them!

And about 6 months ago I met a lady in an assisted living facility. I visited her every Wednesday and brought her communion and the Word...she would have been 95 this August.
She was a sweet and wise woman, she raised 5 children by herself and served in the military too!
You have heard the saying about people coming into your life for a reason, for a season or for a lifetime? Well, she was in my life for a very short season, but she made an impact on my life. She was full of wisdom and listened to my story and then provided me with thoughts in dealing with family issues. She will be missed, but I am better for having known her!

I was thinking this morning that I was late to get and 4th of July cards out. What a touching story of your friend. I'm sorry for your loss and happy for how much she enriched your life!
Lovely festive 4th of July cards for your dear Aunts, Colleen! I'm sure they will appreciate it! And, second card is beautiful with the the pretty yellow lilies! Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend! I'm sure you were a blessing to her as much as she was to you! Hugs!
Your Aunties must love you to bits, my friend! You make them feel so special by always remembering them at every holiday! And I love your very beautiful second card and a very beautiful story, Col! I, too, believe that people come into our lives for a reason and it's wonderful when we are open to it! I'm sure she was just as grateful to have known you!! Hugs, Darnell
