I wil not write much, but today is a special and hard day because Catherine has gone to be with her Savior. The three of us girls (Mama, Emily, and me) were singing hymns to calm Catherine. We were singing the 4th verse of "And Can It Be" when we noticed that she changed. The words that we finished only moments before she passed were "The chains fell off, I rose, went forth and followed Thee...". Isn't it wonderful that the Lord came and took her home when we were singing praises to HIM!!! She had a peaceful passing, for which we are so thankful.
The next few days will be harder than we can imagine right now, so please pray for us all. Also, praise our Lord Jesus Christ for His grace and mercy because Catherine is in His presence!

Rachel,
Hi...I am Kandis Oliver's mom and have been praying for your precious sister and you and your family for several months. I am so sorry for you and your family and will continue to pray for you.
I'm so sorry for your loss. We will absolutely be praying for you and your family.
We are so sorry, too. We prayed for all of you tonight. It will be hard for you to sleep these next few weeks, but take heart knowing that Catherine is resting in her Savior's arms. Love you.
