I am very sad about Betsy passing away on Thursday. I loved her very much. She is the one that took care of our mom and my dad, for those many years. She was there when ever needed. She cleaned and keep the house in some what order. She had her hands full after my dad passed away in 2002. The reason I say this is she loved him very much too and she really use to get depressed duirng these times. I know Betsy tried her hardness to help her and make sure she was taken care of each and everyday.
After mom's passing, Betsy really had some troubles letting her go. I know when we talked about her, I saw her face become very sad. She loved her very much too.
My last time I saw Betsy, she was not doing to good. She had some surgry done on her legs. She was having trouble just walking around after that happen. Then about three months ago, Lenny called me and told me that she was in the hospial and not doing to well. During this time I really could not get away. Camp groups started coming in. It really was a excuse for me not to deal with it. When I saw her last time. I saw the pain she was in and how she could not even walk around. I know Lenny did the best he could helping her and getting her places she needed to get to. Lenny loved her very much and I know he did his best to make sure she was getting the best care. He would write to me and tell me how she was doing. So like I told you, I could not get away.
So I asked a good freind of mine back in Fort Lauderdale, Fl. I asked her if she would be able to visit my sister? She told me that she would love to help me out and just have a little time spending with her. Betsy did know who she was. The reason is I have told Betsy and Lenny about Rose, she has been a good friend for many years and every time I get to town we have dinner and a movie. It really nice to just sit around and have a nice time with her.
So Rose went and visited her and, she told me that the time with Betsy was really nice and that Betsy understood her too. You know by squessing hands and just looking into each other eyes. Rose walk away and told me all about her time with her. It really was nice to have someone to call on and ask for a favor and know it was God's plan. I do remember one thing Rose told me, that Betsy had the most beautiful Blue Eyes. I do remember that very much.
Okay where am I going with all of this? Well I have been asking people when is the funeral? Maybe I would like to see the family again? Yesterday I got a phone call from one of my neices, Kathy. She called and told me that she just came back from the funeral and it was very moving. She told me that there was a lot of crying and Lenny was not doing to well. I knew Lenny loved her and he pretty much had this all planed out. It is hard to loose the one you love and have to get things in order. The Lord had the people He wanted there and that is pretty much answered prayer for me. Plus
Read Jeremiah 16:5 to 7. This is God telling Jeremiah not to go to any funeral. God is so neat. That was my reading for this morning. I am reading through the Bible in a year.
I know she is with Him and there is no more pain or anything wrong with her now. Plus I know I will see her again.
