Passing on

A mentor of mine from the Focus on the Family Institute recently passed away. She'd been battling cancer for a little while and scores of us were in prayer for her but the Lord decided she had done what He wanted her to do down here. Or else He just wanted her with Him, which would be completely understandable - we all loved Sheryl dearly and she was an incredible woman after God's own heart. I learned a ton about truly loving people and good and true femininity from her and often review my notes from her classes on marriage and family. She passed the torch onto all of us she touched so it is up to us to live out the truths she taught us. She desired nothing but the best from and for us. She left behind a good husband and 3 dear children. Sheryl was a great definition of love and her joy and sincerity will be missed. We will be praying and lifting her family up in prayer and love. Sheryl, we love you and will dearly miss you!
