Dear Family and Friends.
Does not seem possible but here it is already, SO HAPPY NEW YEAR MAY IT BE A HEALTHY, AND HAPPY ONE FOR ALL....At this point I'm not very news worthy, but I think of & count my blessings everyday to have so many kind, thoughtful,caring and generous people in our lives and that we live in truely the most wonderful community, I can not even imagine getting to tomorrow without the support given to us every day. I have been working at going through Brenda's things and to get moved and I ran across this in a drawer with all the cards and ect. from the boys and I. Believe me it dropped me to my knees so thought beings how I am fighting for words I would like to share with all of you who so faithfully followed her blog.
A Letter From Heaven
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived OK.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God, above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon, and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through.
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you.
I need you here badly, you're part of my plan.
Ther's so much tht we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things that he wished for me to do.
And foremost of the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you...in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry, it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God had planned.
If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb.
But together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind:
I'm walking in your footsteps only a step behind.
P.S. I love you.

Chicken-
That letter is so....I don't even know the words to describe it. Its heartwarming and beautiful, and it puts into words what I feel Brenda is going through right now. She is watching over all of us and especially you! I love you so much and we hope to see you soon!!
Love-
Kirk, Leigh and girls
Chicken,
I am so glad you shared this special letter with us. It brought tears to my eyes and watered many flowers. When ever I am thinking of Brenda and feeling sad, I try to always remember what Coy said that we need to celebrate her life. I try to replace my sadness with thoughts of all the happy and fun times we had together and it helps get me through. Brenda will always be with us as long as we have our memories and that is a wonderful thing.
Thank you again for this touching letter, it was a great way to start the new year and have heavenly thoughts of Brenda.
Love to you all,
Charlene
Love the letter Chicken. I have been thinking of you all- so glad to see the blog still going every now and then- I keep getting the urge to check it! Love to see Brenda's beautiful face when it comes up on the screen. Hope you are all doing well.
Love,
April
Chicken,
I think of you every day. Thank you for sharing the "Letter from Heaven." It brought tears to my eyes and know what it must have done to you all. Just know that Brenda will always be with you and watching over you. It is so hard to lose a loved one and I am glad that you have so many wonderful people surrounding you every day. I know that the holidays had to be extremely tough on all of you.
Take care and I hope to get over to see you sometime in the near future.
Love, Joanne
Hello to you all,
I can't believe how fast time just slips by.
Already a New Year!
I'm sure it is soo hard to go through Sis things. The "Letter From Heaven" Wow, sure makes you think differently about things.
Sure wish I knew what the plan was.
I received this card from one of my employees and the same thing happened to me Mom, it read
Long before were ready, we sadly say goodbye.
But there are those in a far more beautiful place who are saying, "Welcome Home".
I broke down in tears but it sure makes you think.
I Love you all very very much and will talk to you Chicken this coming week.
Leigh thank you so much for sending me the Mug and the picture. Means the world to me. Every single day when I light my candles I think of the most beautiful smile and eyes and then I smile.
It still doesn't seem real.
Good night and sweet dreams.
Love always,
Rhonda
Dear Chicken,
It's hard to believe that Boo is gone. However, after the second time of trying, I finally got thru the poem. It actually brought a peace, because I know that Boo is watching over all of you.
I find it comforting to see how many people still come to Boo's blogspot to keep track of all of you.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Love you.
Bob and Arley
Chicken,
Thank you for sharing with us. I always new she was watching over all of you. I still check this blog daily, not sure why but something makes me do it everyday. Hugs to you all.

Chicken, Not a day goes by that I don't think of Brenda and also of you. I always say a little prayer for you. Thanks for the wonderful piece of Heaven that you shared. Truly Brenda is an angel looking down on us all.
Blessings, Sue
Chicken, thanks for the letter. As in life, Brenda was and always will be an angel. Miss her so much. Sheridan and I will come and visit you soon. Love Trudy
Love you Aunt Chicken! thank you for sharing that with us. I miss you and love you!
Didn't know if you were still checking the blog but wanted you to know that I think of you everyday and pray that you are doing OK. They are showing the house today so I am hoping something comes of it as I am tired of having it on the market plus I want to get down to Delta before Annie has the twins. She is doing good so far. Leigh and Kirk are going to have their hands full. We are anxious to find out what it is because it would nice to add a boy to the seven girls but he might not think so. He will be sick of playing princess' and barbies. Amy
