For Betty - that day came, only two days after the email below. July 19th at 05.00 hrs - the Lord called her home, and freed her from her suffering. We learned, only hours before that, the the cancer had spread thru her bones and entered her lung - and it was obvious that time was short. Don immediately began making preparations to travel - while at the same time we were running all of our Christian Religious Education exams. The Lord enabled Don to fly the next day from Kabompo and he reached Toronto on the 22nd. Elva remained "by the stuff" - which consisted mainly of about 2000 essays to mark!.
Visitation is today, Wed 25th and the funeral will be tomorrow. All the rest of our family will be there. Glad that Don is able to be present - and while I would have liked to be there, it just wasn't possible at this stage.
