| I'M
FREE
Don't grieve for me for now I'm,
free
I'm following the path God laid for
me.
I took His hand when I heard Him
call
I turned my back and left it
all.
I could not stay another
day
To laugh, to love, to work or
play.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a
kiss,
Ah yes, these things I too will
miss.
Be not burdened with time of
sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of
tomorrow.
My life's been full, I've savored
much
Good friends, good times, a loved one's
touch
Perhaps my time seemed all to
brief
Don't lengthen it now with undue
grief.
Lift up your hearts and share with
me
God wanted me now" And I am
Free!
Psalms 62:6-8

Family and friends communicated and
laughed and showed the love that Kitty would have wanted. A
family brought together by the loss of a loved one, reunited
with members they had not seen in 29 years. Kitty enjoyed
family gatherings and we know she was pleased with this one.
We all are better people knowing Kitty and having her in our
lives.

May 5, 2006 A message from Kitty
OK HERE IS HOW THIS THING
WORKS.
BELIEVE IT OR NOT I
REALLY DON'T CARE....
8:10 AM THIS MORNING I
FOUND A PENNY ON THE GROUND, TALE SIDE UP.
(WHICH TO ME IS GOOD LUCK) IT WAS A SHINNY PENNY.
YEAR 2002
IMMEDIATELY I SAID THANK
YOU. BUT WASN'T SURE WHO IT WAS FROM.
I TURNED ON MY COMPUTER
AND AN EMAIL FROM KAREN SHOWING HER ANNIVERSARY
PHOTOS.
SHE SENDS THEM TO ME.
IN LOOKING THROUGH THE
PHOTOS I SAW ONE OF UNCLE JOHN AND KAREN, SOME OF
KATHY AND HER HUSBAND, KAREN AND BILLY. THERE WERE A
LOT OF PHOTOS THAT WERE BLURRY AND THAT IS SOMETIMES
IS A SIGN (TO ME) THAT A SPIRIT IS PRESENT. A LOT OF
TIMES IT'S JUST BLURRY PICTURES.
BUT LOOK AT THE SCHEDULE
OF EVENTS.
AT THE MOMENT I AM LOOKING
AT THE PHOTOS, I GLANCE DOWN AND LOOK AT THE PENNY I
FOUND THIS MORNING. IT WAS NOW HEADS UP. OK MAYBE I
TURNED IT OVER WHEN I PUT IT ON MY DESK. BUT I DOUBT
IT.
THE YEAR 2002 WAS CLEAR AS
DAY. SO I OPENED UP MY LIFE EVER AFTER WEBSITE AND
THE MEMBERS LIST HAS 2 MEMBERS. ONE IS MY AUNT
KITTY.
I BELIEVE THAT MY AUNT
KITTY SENT ME A SIGN THIS MORNING. WHICH PROMPTED ME
TO POST THIS ON HER PAGE.
AUNT KITTY WAS AT HER
DAUGHTER'S ANNIVERSARY PARTY.
SHE WANTED ME TO KNOW
THAT. SHE WANTED ME TO LET THEM KNOW THAT SHE
WAS THERE.
SHE IS HAPPY. SHE IS
WITHOUT PAIN, SHE IS WATCHING OVER THEM AND KNOWS THAT
ALTHOUGH THEIR LIFE ISN'T EASY. ITS GOOD.
SHE ALSO SAID TO TAKE CARE
OF YOUR HEALTH.
THERE WILL BE A TIME WHEN
SHE SEES US AGAIN. YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY OR HURRY TO
GET THERE. SHE WILL BE WAITING.
INDEED YOU TAKE
CARE OF YOUR HEALTH TOO....
LOVE
MARGARET

May 24, 2007 Five years have passed
since Kitty left us. Each year there is something to remind me
of her. Yesterday I was at my mom's and saw a door stopper, a
mouse, and remembered that Kitty made it and gave it to my mom
as a present. Yes it is still stopping the door from opening
too far and putting a hole in the wall. Strange how our lives
are filled with reminders of our loved ones. Most of the
time when we least expect it. |

May 2009 Where does the time go?
My life has changed a lot since the last time I posted on my
Aunt Kitty's site. I merged my website business with a
computer repair business. Yes it's busy. But I still try to
keep up with the websites. Life Ever After will always be
here. Maybe not always current, but the past postings
will be here. As long as I am here.
My mom has a hobby ( geocaching ) and she put a travel bug
named Kitty in memory of her sister-in-law. That little
travel bug Kitty has been all over the world. check out
where it's been

Hope no one finds this in bad taste. My dad has friends
across the world and this is the only way to reach mass
numbers at one time.
My dad has gone to be with my mom, his partner Kitty. She
came and got him last night and they are going fishing. I
will post again later when we have everything finalized.
Thank you for all your love and support. MAY THEY REST IN
PEACE TOGETHER...

and departure, I prepare a place for him here at Life Ever
After. Say hello to my parents when you see them Uncle John.
