Several years ago, around Christmas 2006/New Year’s 2007, Carolanne and I began virtually “visiting” each other and leaving comments on each other’s blogs. Over time, our virtual visits turned to IM’ing (instant messaging) and emailing. Carolanne lived “down under” at the time with her then-husband and son. We tried to figure out how to meet each other, but over the years, that never happened. That didn’t keep our friendship from growing, however.
Over time, things happened and changed, and Carolanne found herself planning a wedding and a relocation to the US. She married her Prince Charming in June of 2010 and was warmly welcomed into his family. Life was good. Was.
Early this morning, I received an email from Carolanne that her beloved husband had passed away suddenly and completely unexpectedly during the night. I am broken-hearted, but I can’t begin to imagine the depths of her broken-heartedness.
Several of my blogging friends may remember Carolanne from her blogging days. She wrote “C Outside the Box” up until late 2009, when her life began to take this dramatic change of course. Now more changes are in her near future, but right now, she needs prayers for strength to get through the next several days…weeks…months…years.
May God give you comfort and peace, Carolanne.
I remember her, her blog and her visit. I will be keeping her in prayer.
I am joining you in prayer for Caroline.
Sorry, misspelled her name…Carolanne.
Hello Vicki…just stopping by because there you are at the bottom of my blog roll (it is in alphabetical order at the moment) and I have missed you here on the blogs. Wishing you and Doc a blessed autumn and I hope everything is going well for you both.
How sad for Carolanne and you. I hope she can cope with this awful challenge. Is she near you?
