Begin each day as if it were on purpose. (from the movie Hitch)
Remember Lot's wife (Luke 17:32)
You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. - Marie Curie
Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less. - Marie Curie
"Perhaps all of us sometimes would like to withdraw and isolate ourselves from the storms of life and from the fiery darts of Satan. However, we must be in the world but not of the world, meaning to go forward in the midst of the sin, evil, and corruption that are in the world but resist and reject them. Being in the world can be frightening because we live at a time when Satan is becoming more and more bold. The Lord said, “I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.” (John 17:15.) - Joseph B. Wirthlin

D'Nell,
I'm so sorry to hear of your dad. I remember him as such a good man. I hope you and your family is doing okay.
Love,
Kristen
I just want you to know I am thinking of you today. I know it seems like a good thing that he is not suffering anymore, but I am sure it is never easy to say goodbye to your daddy! If you need anything let me know! BIG (((Hug)))
Love ya!
I didn't even know your dad was sick D'nell- for some reason I thought it was your mom with the health problems. No matter how ready he might have been- it will be hard as the days go on- you know that because of your brothers- death is so weird isn't it?
D'Nell,
I know you and I don't cross paths very often, but I am truly sorry to hear about your dad. You're in my prayers and I hope that through this difficult time, you can find peace.
D'Nell,
I am thinking about you today. You are one of the strongest people I know. The wonderful comfort of the gospel is knowing how happy your Dad is right now! Love you.
D'Nell- I'm sorry for your loss. I am thinking of you today!
Nells, I am SO sorry to hear about your dad! It is always hard to lose someone. I am sending much love your way (catch it) XOXOXOX!!!
Hi D'Nell..
We heard of your father's death from Kristen after she read your blog. Stuart and I were both at work. It's a bitter/sweet thing for your family -- difficult at best. Cherish your memories and remember the good times. What a reunion he must be having!! Love to you always.
I am so sorry to hear about your dad, it made me cry to read your sweet post. Please let me know if I can do ANYTHING to help you. Our prayers are with you and your family.
I love you DNell. I'm sorry to hear about your father, what a great loss for your family. You are in my prayers!
D'Nell,
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Even though I didn't know your dad personally, I feel like I got to know a little bit of him through your stories. They always made me laugh. Stay strong, but know it's ok to cry! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

DNell, sorry about the passing of your dad. I love the special relationship you have with your parents and they way you talk about in on your blog. Thanks for sharing that with us.

D'Nell,
What a difficult time this is for you and your loved ones. I will keep you all in my prayers. I know the power of the Comforter is real and hope you receive that comfort in great measure. Grieving is hard work - going through it myself I know that it comes in waves. Be gentle with yourself through the months ahead. Amen to the joys of the gospel's good news!
D'Nell
Obviously I am catching wind of your fathers passing a little late. However you and your family are in my prayers, and remember those we lose are never really lost. Jenn
