On the 4th of July we spent the day with Tony's
brother Bubba (Jared) in Mt. Pleasant.
He is battling cancer right now and has about lost.
Amazingly, we met them at the parade and
there was Bubba sitting in what looked like a golf
cart with his oxygen. I hugged him.
"Hi Bubba"
"That hurts" he said.
"oops. sorry."
Tony went and stayed by him.
Tony was rubbing Bubba's back.
"Feel good?"
"No!" he said.
"Does it hurt?" Tony asked
"Leaning that way." Bubba said.
We honestly didn't mean to offer him
pain with our visit.
When we got back from the parade Bubba
went straight to bed. Tony helped his wife with
some things and spent time with Bubba.
I spent some time talking with Paula, Bubba's wife.
In which she informed me that Bubba would like me,
along with his sisters and mom and another sis-in-law, to
speak at his funeral.
My topic is 'Death and the Spirit World'
Paula said he is so excited to do missionary work
when he passes. So, his funeral will be a missionary
lesson about the Plan of Salvation.
I had this funny thought that maybe he'll be
able to teach Micheal Jackson.
Wouldn't that be somethin'. :)
P.S. Bubba passed to the other side of the veil
this afternoon. Our prayers are with you
Paula. We love you!
"....Our loved ones who have passed on
are not far from us."
