I want to dedicate this to a wonderful friend who brought much laughter, tears of joy and happiness to my life, without her I would have had many difficult times not knowing many people in this State I HAVE LOST A GREAT AND DEAR FRIEND. 

IN LOVING MEMORY OF YBSROBIN..........May you rest in Peace my friend. God Bless You and guide your family through this very difficult time. YOU WILL BE GREATLY MISSED. 

IT IS WITH TEARS IN MY EYES AND PAIN IN MY HEART I AM TAKING THIS TIME TO LET ALL THE BLOGGERS KNOW THAT ROBIN HAS WENT ON TO BE WITH OUR LORD AND  ASK IN HER NAME AND FOR HER MEMORY ON BEHALF OF HER FAMILY THAT IF ANY OF YOU HAVE ANY BLOGS TRASHING OR BASHING HER NAME TO  PLEASE DELETE IT.

 I ASK THAT WE KEEP HER IN OUR HEARTS AND IN THIS TIME OF YEAR, PRAY FOR HER FAMILY. ROBIN LEAVES BEHIND, A HUSBAND AND THREE BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS

 AND IN HER MEMORY LETS PUT ASIDE ALL OF OUR DIFFERENCES AND HAVE A MOMENT OF SILENCE FOR OUR DEPARTED. I,  MYSELF HAVE BEEN OVERWHELMED AND I HAVE ASKED MYSELF WHAT WILL I DO WITHOUT YOU ROBIN? WHO WILL I TURN TO FOR ADVISE OR SIMPLY TO SEEK A SMILE.................... YOU WILL FOREVER BE IN MY HEART AND I KNOW YOU ARE WITH US IN SPIRIT..............................YOU ARE LOVED.

I AM ALSO ASKING ALL YOU BLOGGERS THAT HAVE SHARED IN THE BLOG BATTLES TO GIVE EACH OTHER A BREAK AND TRY TO BE MORE CIVIL WITH ONE ANOTHER.  LIFE IS INDEED SHORT YOU ARE HERE ONE MOMENT AND GONE THE NEXT.

I WILL BE THE FIRST TO SAY, THAT IF I HAVE OFFENDED ANYONE IN THE PAST, I AM SORRY AND I HOPE THAT OUR FUTURE BLOGS WILL BE CIVIL AND INFORMATIONAL. WE ARE LIVING IN VERY TOUGH TIMES AND WE NEED TO EMBRACED ONE ANOTHER.

adding a bit of humor for you Robin I say

TO all you turkeys....May God Bless each and everyone.  I will be thanking the Lord for my family and their health and thank you Fox 35 for making the news, no matter how bad it is, seem like an entertainment.  Thank God this year is almost over and I am hopeful it will get better....Enjoy your families for one never know when it will be the last time and with that in mind let us

REMEMBER.

                                                    
              DESIDERATA

Go placidly Amid the Noise and Haste and Remember what peace there may be in silence.  As far as Possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.  Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.  Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.  If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.  Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.  Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.  Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery.  But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism;  Be yourself, Especially, do not feign affection.  Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perrenial as the grass.  Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.  Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.  But do not distress yourself with imaginings.  Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.  Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.  You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have the right to be here.  And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.  Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.  With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.  BE CAREFUL.  STRIVE TO BE HAPPY....

Yes. We are all shocked, as I just spoke with Robin on the 17th and she was feeling better. Apparently, she went quietly in the wee hours of early November 20th. She will be missed. Her mission on the blogs was for all to get along and share our thoughts. One thing she was right about there are many children reading these blogs and for her daughters to have seen past PURE SILLINESS was distateful. Thank you Cromagnonwoman. I like to set up some sort of Memorial on the Blogs where WE as bloggers can be remembered. I will await after the holidays and see how the children feel.

Im real sad to here bout the news of ur friend. For the longest time I been accused of bein you an ur friend an since I didn't see any comments from ur friend I didn't think this user was a real one. So Id like to offer my sincere apologies cuz I know I said some really nasty stuff. I understand what ur sayin bout behavin an Im all for it...but I for one will admit to it bein hard to say whats on my mind without possibly hurtin other peoples feelins. Ive had a lot of stuff said bout me but I don't let it bother me none. Yeah my spellin may not be the best but when ur my age an text a whole lot to the family an try to type here.....well I apologize if that offends some. But regardless this topic aint bout me an I hope ur friends family makes it thru the holiday fun knowin there mother will be right there with em.

Ya know ..you are right, I meant to put it in the Faith Blog....but my head hasn't been all there in these past days.......though what you said is true....squashedvoice...WE ALL MADE HER LAUGH......I think it was Howard who always said......laughter is good medicine and though some blogs in the past were JUST MEAN AND NASTY......you gotta admit they were funny. Enjoy your holiday, I am sure where Robin is ... there's no room for anything but love and peace.

So sorry to hear your best friend is gone. Where is her funeral being held?
If I can, I would like to pay my last respects.

Candy were you able to attend the funeral?

Frank sometimes there is an online guest book that anyone can sign. That would be nice to do. I still get people signing my Moms guest book and she passed in March. I love to read them and wonder who these people are. It really puts a smile on my face to know she is still thought of.

Unfortunately, no I wasn't there physically but my heart and spirit will always be with my friend. Thank you all for your kind words.

yes, those onlien guestbooks are truly nice, as I lost yet another friend a year ago and I love to go onto the guest book and read and add passages as well as pictures.
