Hi friends
I wanted to check in with you and let you know why Ive been so absent from blogging recently.
I lost my beautiful aunt Jenny.
Thank you to my blog/facebook friends for all of the love and supportive comments in regards to my aunt Jenny passing away from cancer last week.
I was with her when she passed after a 2 year battle with cancer.
She was only 48
She was not only beautiful on the outside but she was even more beautiful on the inside
She was the kindest and most caring person
She was a true angel on earth
but..
now she is with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
and that gives my family comfort.
(Jenny)
Be sure to take the time to let your family and friends know how much you love them.
Life is too short.
( This song by U2 reminds me of my aunt )
I've been finding it hard to get inspired to blog about antiques, finds etc. when going through this loss.
I'm hoping to be inspired and creative again soon.
xo,
Rachel

I'm so sorry for your loss. Take your time to grieve. I understand. It does put life into perspective. But just so you know, we all need gentle beauty to wash away the rough troubles of this world and your blog does that. ox
Rachel I am so very sorry. I hope you can take some time to heal and I am thinking about you and your family. Sending you hugs.

Hi Rachel,
We are so sorry that you and your family are feeling this painful loss.

She has a beautiful face but I believe that she was probably even more beautiful inside...and that sustains you. It is hard to know why God chooses to bring someone Home so early when leaving this Earth leaves such a gaping hole. Blessings to you as you deal with the day to day anguish of missing her. xo Diana ps. I choose to believe that God's kingdom is a little bit brighter because of her.
What sad news Rachel. Enjoy this time surrounded by your families love, your blogging friends will be here waiting for you when the time is right.♥
Hi Rachel,

I so sorry for the loss of your dear, sweet Aunt Jenny.
Oh Rachel.....I am so, so, sorry for your loss. And you are right, there is such comfort knowing a loved one (anyone)who passes,is with Jesus when they know Him as their Savior, But we still miss, them and mourn for them. I will pray for peace that passes all understanding....peace that only God can give you. Thank you for the reminder that we just don't know how long any of us have and not to let a moment go by without telling those around us that we love them! Praying, katrina
I'm so sorry for your loss, Rachel. I wish I could give you a big hug. Best wishes and prayers to you and your family ♥

Rachel-
I am at a loss for words, I lost a niece to cancer at 31. I was with her at the last also.. I miss her so much. My mom has lung cancer and my brother in law has bladder cancer. I pray for comfort and peace daily for all who battle cancer. God is good and provides strength each day! Blessings to you and yours. Thanks for sharing you blog with us all.. You are an inspiration to me!
Rachel,
I am so sorry to hear this. I will pray for you and your family.
