Noelle McKayLife has sure been crazy complicated and blogging has just not made it on my to do list. I am ready to blog now. I have many emotions that have been on the surface and it does not take much to feel the hurt and sadness for the loss of my dear sister Noelle. I also feel sadness for her husband and 3 children that are left behind as she moves on to her new life. (No doubt she is watching and helping in ways we can't see.) I am grateful for the Gospel that helps me understand there is life after death and we all have a purpose in this new life. This does not make the pain and sadness ever go away, though maybe it reassures me that I will see her again and that helps to ease the sadness when I am reminded of her.
Noelle was such a great example to not only my family and her own but also to all those she met. She truly loved all and it was shown by her unconditional love and service. Family meant the world to her and she would have done anything for any of us. I feel as though I did not appreciate her enough. I feel guilty for not being a better sister and enjoying every minute of life or taking more time with her. I know she would not want me to dwell upon this but I find myself occasionally doing this! I have decided I am going to try to be a better sister and be the example she taught. This is all I can do.
I look forward to our meeting in the next life when my time is up and the veil will part for me. She will be their I am sure of it! For now I have a beautiful legacy to follow and the atonement of our savior who understands our pains and loss to comfort me. Until we meet again dear sister. Thanks for all you were and did!
This is just the girls! There is 3 other boys.
