A Time of Caring and Sharing

25 February 2013

Kim made an amazing number of trips up here to help Cherie. They had developed an unusually strong bond through Cherie's last battle with breast cancer and all the surgeries that followed. There was hardly anyone who could comfort her as Kim did. Kim sacrificed much to be with her whenever she was needed. Cherie loved the joy that Julie brought when she came every day after work, and was so happy when Chantel came. I love that my daughters love each other. 


Katelyn and Jazzmin were two great comforts for Cherie. Dogs seems to have a sixth sense and knew just when Cherie needed her most and just how close to get to her without hurting her. Cherie had so many friends who came by. Flowers, food and presents were brought by neighbors, ward members and others.  Kari took great care of her in the evenings and the nighttime. He did more for Cherie than we will ever know.  




Spencer, Hayden & Paige reported the day's activities to Cherie 
and were more than willing to help in any way possible. 


People in my ward were also loving and supportive of us.
These beautiful tulips were given to my by Arlene Alvey.


Katelyn asked me to go to the Salt Lake Temple with her. That made me happy.

Cherie & Kari have great children.
