Dear Family and Friends, Though it is a sad day in some respects, it is a happy day in others. Linda passed away today Mar. 7, 2007 at 3:00 pm. She was coherent right to the end but has been slipping away more each day. She is the product of many miracles and it is amzing to see the continued miracles both spiritual and physical. We have appreciated your faith and prayers in our families behalf. We have felt the results of all your concerns for us and our family. Everyone is concerned about me but I report to you that I am doing very well. I have had nearly 10 years of pure delight in living with this special Daughter of God. She had colon cancer that long ago and so to have been blessed with continued even excellent health has given me plenty of time to prepare for this special time. I will continue to live in our newer motorhome so that I can travel to visit with our kids and grandkids and to travel between Alberta Canada and Spokane Washington in the summer and in the southwest or south central USA in the winter. I shoveled some snow in Calgary Alberta just 10 days ago to make sure that I had not forgotten how and then expressed my greatest desire, even a goal to never shovel snow again. Even not knowing where I will end up when I die, I know I will not be where there is snow.(Heaven or Hell) Linda's funeral will be held in the Liberty Lake Latter Day Saint Chapel on Saturday, March 10th at 11:00 AM. For more information or details call Mark Shipley at (509)892-9546 or (509) 998-4936. She will be buried in Saltese Cemetary which is here in the Spokane Valley. Some of you have expressed your desire to send flowers or make donations in Linda's behalf. Your love and prayers have been the greatest gifts of all. Should you choose to donate however, flowers may be sent to the following address: Thornhill Valley Funeral Home 1400 South Pines Spokane Valley, WA. 99206 (prior to 9:00 Saturday morning) Linda's favorite donation place was the Temple Patron Assistance Fund- write "Temple Patron Assistant Fund" on your tithing contribution slip under the Other section. I want each person that this email goes to, to understand how much we have loved our association with you. I will try and stay in touch with many of you and until the time we make contact or meet again may God's choicest blessings be upon you and your family. Love Ted and Linda Shipley |
