A friend, Christopher, from church, died last Thursday afternoon. He was only 54 years old. He leaves a wife and 3 children, 25, 23 and 17. We met before he and his wife had their youngest child. Their son was a friend of our exchange student, Felipe and frequented our home during that time.
Like his wife and I shared today during visitation, we cry and morn for ourselves. He is with the Lord and she said he was singing in Heaven. Sunday before last, he was one of the deacons taking up the offering. This Sunday we were morning his death.
This was a very sobering death since it was not expected at all. He, like my Dad, had an aneurysm. His was in the brain. Jay was at the hospital on Tuesday when the neurosurgeon came out to speak to his wife. The surgeon said that the surgery was successful, but he was concerned about other issues that were not in his expertise. Our friend ended up dying from complications with his kidneys.
Good bye dear friend. You will be missed. We are certain that we will meet again! Of that we are assured. Thank you God!
