[Womens-guild] [Council] Sue

[jopea12 at aol.com]

 The dichotomy of great joy and great sadness at the same time.  I am overjoyed to know Chris, Izzy, and Tony are now legally defined as family to match what their hearts have known for a very long time.  My heart is heavy to hear about Sue. She was such a smart woman with so many wonderful characteristics and her love of family was profound.  Praying for her entire family, friends and of course, our sweet church family.
Peace, 
Johanna

 Good morning all, I received a call from Chris Zellers. She wanted me to share two pieces of information. The first is the joy that Izzy and Tony are officially adopted. It has been a long road, but it is done! We indeed celebrate with them on that good news. 
The second piece of information will come as a shock. Her Mother, Sue, passed away last week from a heart attack. An active and vibrant member of Grace Sue leaves a hole in our Church and our hearts. Please surround the Zeller family and all those who knew and loved Sue in prayer. There will be a memorial service in St. Louis, and a separate service in Ohio at a later date. I will let the church know when that is. 
If you need someone to talk to, please don't hesitate to reach out. This is sudden, as Sue was just at our Thanksgiving dinner two Sundays ago. Be well.
