Hi-- Well, I don't know if our Gordons connect or not, but I'm feeling pretty connected with you right now. I loved your quilt story! I've been spending quite a bit of time talking things over with God myself in the last 3 weeks. On March 17, my husband of 19 years told my children and I that he loved us and left the house. Then he called me on the cell phone, told me he loved me and that he was sorry and then got out of his truck and shot himself. I have been pretty much in a state of shock - but trying to muddle through since I have 2 children to take care of. This was the last thing in the world I would ever have expected. He had shown some signs of depression that I can see in looking back, but nothing that grabbed my attention then. I can tell you honestly that I would not be surviving this at all without God's help, and all the angels He has sent to me in the way of family and friends. Anyway, thanks for sharing the story. I know some people get bent out of shape about non-geneology stuff, but I, for one, am glad you shared. Ronna
