I just found out that our dear friend Stephanie (TripleNeg) left this earth this morning to be with our heavenly father. I knew she battled long and hard, but the news hit me like a ton of bricks. I've gone through a half a box of tissues as a result.
An amazing person, loving mother and devoted Christian, Stephanie leaves not only her two children, but a host of family and friends to mourn her passing. She will most certainly be missed.
A while back, she sent me the following PM:
Felicia-
I have a favor to ask of you. If something were to happen to me would you please ask everyone to send resolutions to my church to be read? In the south, there a tradition that resolutions are read at people's funerals. Have you heard of them? Anyway, I would be honored to have my friends here in this forum (African American and Met's Thread) have a voice at my memorial service.
<!--StartFragment-->God is able,
stephanie
A resolution can be a letter or card. Please help honor her memory by doing as she requested. You can PM me for the address of the church...
Felicia (AKA GojuGirl1)

I'm feeling so, so sad about Stephanie. As AnnNYC so aptly described her, she was indeed inspiring...and kind...and all the other descriptors. Thinking of her family right now, and how devastated they must be feeling. "Hope has 2 beautiful daughters -- anger and courage. Anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are." Augustine

I only today am learning of this. I must check my other threads as I thought I would have heard somewhere else. This breaks my heart although I know she is with the Father and so is at peace. GOD IS ABLE. Each time you read a post from me know that a prayer is going up for you.
