Here is a tribute that Kathi wrote that we would like to share with you:
"My last post started “This is the Truth I’m Standing On…” That song has been running in my head for days now and I am still standing on that truth, but this is the post I never wanted to write.
My chivalrous, caring, generous husband graduated to heaven today. He was not only my husband, but my best friend. The only “boy” I ever loved, we started dating when I was 13 and he was 15. That was it. We just knew. Our story had many chapters and journeys, some more fun than others, but we walked them all together - hand in hand and side by side. He was an amazing husband, father, friend, and mentor.
No doubt – there will be a void in all our lives.
In the end, his body simply could not take the stress of everything it had been through over the past two years of cancer and all that accompanied it. He tried and he fought. He was at peace with his decision today. He chose to fight, but he trusted God that if it was time for him to leave this earth, he would be in good hands. He knew he was loved and respected and wanted me to share his love with all of you – and our thanks for your support along the journey.
I could write for days about how amazing he was… and maybe I will. Right now, I am clinging to the truth that I know beyond a shadow of a doubt we will see each other again in heaven. He is no longer struggling to breathe… no longer fighting the pains of cancer or frustrations of treatment. I trust he is rejoicing with Timothy and exploring the streets of heaven.
The song continues beyond that first line of the chorus…
This is the truth I'm standing on
Even when all my strength is gone
You are faithful forever
And I know You'll never
Let me fall
Right now I'm choosing to believe
Someday soon I'll look back and see
All the pain had a purpose
Your plan was perfect all along
This is the truth I'm standing on
Good, I believe You're still good
Even when life's not good
I will not lose this hope
The God who parts the sea
Promises He's gonna
Make a way for me
My rock my shield my firm foundation
I know I will not be shaken
You remind me
Where my help comes from
This is the truth I'm standing on"
Are you sure?
