The passing of a Loved One...

Well, I just found out this weekend that my Uncle Eldon (he is technically my cousin, but him and his wife have been more of an aunt/uncle to me) has not been given long to live. Him and his wife JoAnn are some of the sweetest people you will ever meet. We got a call this morning on the way to church that the Dr had only given him a few minutes to 1 hour to live. That was 6 hours ago and he is still hanging on. He has been opening his eyes some but you can tell he isn't really "here".

As of right now, I am planning on leaving for Louisiana Tuesday night (for Thanksgiving), unless something changes with my uncles status, there is a possibility that I will be leaving sooner. I will keep you posted.


8:30pm Well, my Dad just got a phone call that Uncle Eldon passed away this evening around 6:00-6:30. Please say a prayer for his wife and immediate family that God would comfort them. It's hard to loose anyone you love but especially around the holidays.
