It is your signature and this will remain yours for life.<br /><br />I am under certain circumstances Mrs. Thomas J. Calvin. After over 25 years this has never changed. Since Tom's death I have remaried and now am Mrs. James R. Wright, but I still respond to the first and there is still life insurance as his spouse that I am eligible for.<br /><br />Don't believe that society is taking Brian away from you! Only that the legal system is providing you a simple way to conduct business. Brian will always be with you!<br /><br />Your sister in Christ, Karen W. in S.W.

I know my grandmother felt a little relief at the "have tos" when my grandpa died, because otherwise she would still be sitting at her kitchen table trying to figure out how to move on. The "have tos" gave her a purpose and a direction at a time when she couldn't put one foot in front of the other. Maybe some day it will seem like that for you, too.Lynn C Mama to 3https://www.blogger.com/profile/05342036087073401778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-40716328257111525.post-72583844515229805802009-06-18T10:09:51.811-05:002009-06-18T10:09:51.811-05:00Sweet Angie,
My love to you. The amazing benefit ...Sweet Angie,<br /><br />My love to you. The amazing benefit about belonging to Jesus Christ is that Brian's name is written in a book that is eternal. God will never erase Brian O'Neill's name from the Book of Life that we read about in Scripture. Brian's name is engraved on our awesome God's hands (Isaiah 49). God knew Brian's name before he was born. Brian is not dead. He has been released from this shell we call our earthly body. He is more alive today than he ever was here on this earth. Not one thing you do this side of heaven will erase Brian's life or the fact that He existed. The One who holds Brian's life in His hands cannot forget. Brian will never be a memory to Jesus. Brian is alive in Him! And you are, too, my sweet Angie, though you may not feel that is the truth. Grief is crushing and horrible because it can present lies in a way that our wounded hearts are tempted to believe. Stand firm, Angie, against those lies that satan would whisper (or shout) to you. You love Brian with all your heart and nothing you are doing is dishonoring to him. Brian's life continues to count. You continue to carry on his legacy so well. As to his name...it is hidden with Christ in God. It is safe there and untouchable. Yes, you are now separated by the thin veil of life on this earth, but your blessed and real hope, the anchor of your soul, is that because of Jesus Christ's death, burial, and resurrection, your name has been written in the same book as Brian's. And the truth is, death has been swallowed in victory and there is a glorious reunion ahead of you where God Himself is going to wipe away all these tears that you have shed in the missing of your beloved husband. <br /><br />Hold on, Angie, soon and very soon we are going to see the King!<br /><br />I love you--Shawn from TNShawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10654957203807684519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-40716328257111525.post-51301465141448801742009-06-18T09:38:01.531-05:002009-06-18T09:38:01.531-05:00Your boys will forever carry his name with them th...Your boys will forever carry his name with them the rest of their lives and their kids lives.
