A Sad Day


The past year has been heavily weighted with reminders of how fragile life can be.
This week has been no different. Doug lost his battle with cancer - but won the war for courage and faith...as has his family.
This past year has taught me a lot.

I Will Not Wait

I will not wait
To be the one
That hears those
Dreaded words

I will not wait
To receive the call
Telling me the worst

I will not wait
And wish I had
Shared my love aloud

I will not wait
To take a hand
And tell you that I’m proud

I will not wait
To go outside
And enjoy a sun filled day

I will not wait
While looking on
Thinking
That is child’s play

I will not wait
To find laughter and hope
Through my tears and strife

I will not wait
To hold and cherish
The many blessings
In my life

Lessons learned
In grief and loss…
Hope and memories
Will push us through

I will not wait
Another day
All because of you


Douglas and his beautiful son - enjoying life.
Peaceful hearts to the BTeam.
