Irene Stewart,wife to Paul for over 60 years, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend - to so many people. She touched a great many lives with her gift of service to others and seeing the funny side in life, though her life was not always a picnic in the park. She graduated from this life and is shouting with the millions on high. In this midst of all of this, Irene was just like the rest of us. She had good and bad days, but she never missed an opportunity to help others, if she could help it.
I will miss her emails and her laughter. And o! those hugs of hers. She has gone to the place she has been preparing to go.
We will miss her so.
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful prayers. She was delivered from her pain and lives in a land where there are no tears - no heartaches - just pure love.
Praying for her family. We know this God of all comfort and peace. Take courage - he has overcome death and we will all live with Him and never have to hear the phone ring, delivering this kind of news again.
Meanwhile, those of us here have a great deal to live for. Shine your precious light into this dark world. It counts. She knew how to shine.
love kathryn

You referenced one of my favorite passages there. You have my sympathy for your loss. No more tears, no more suffering, no more pain, for the old order of things has passed away. There's plenty more room for her laughter where she is now!
