Giving thanks for Mim
For all my life, I'm nurtured a deep faith in things turning out spectacularly well when we trust. It looks like Mim's memorial tribute might be online in time for Thanksgiving Sunday parties! Sublime timing!!
Mim slipped from us four months ago. Some of her nearest & dearest have been concerned about WHEN her memorial will finally happen. As my dear husband would say - in the right time.
We started out without any idea of just how she wanted us to celebrate her life. Praise be, the one minister she mentioned no longer does memorial services. That lead us to brainstorming which which which minister would be best. The best was out in Tucson. Voila! Let's do an online service.
Doing the memorial tribute online opened up involving the Laurel Church Camp (it was a transforming experience for Mim).
Last month, the idea dawned to use her line drawings to open & close the tribute.
Since our niece, Karen, is putting it together down in Australia (mega mega mega thanks!), my personal prayer is that she can get her dad - maybe Mike & Kerry together - to record an opening welcome.
It just kept building!
As for the timing... Personally, I can't think of a better time for my sister's memorial tribute to go online, with celebrations all over the globe. Happening over American Thanksgiving? Perfect!
Fingers crossed it all works out as hoped. But whenever it happens, it will be the right time.
