Dear Bill, Even though we have never met, I feel like I know you. I was so saddened to hear the news of your beloved Paula's death. We don't know or understand why we are tested here on earth, but I hope that you, your daughters, and granddaughters will have faith that God will give you strength at this time. I will keep all of you in my daily prayers. My heartfelt condolences, Kathleen Tracy ~ CT. > >> ---- Original Message ---- >> From: Bill Gawne <[email protected]> >> To: [email protected] >> Sent: Sat, Oct 20, 2012, 7:58 AM >> Subject: [BEARA] Will the banshee wail tonight? >> >> Dear friends of Beara, >> >> It seems I keep coming here with news of tragedy.
