Hey Owl Pals,

I have some more sad news, especially for this time of year when we should all be celebrating a very happy time of year.

Not too long ago I wrote to you all that Delana Paul was critically ill.  She passed away on Thursday, December the 13th.  Her memorial service is this Thursday, December 20, at 4:30.  It will be at the Valley Ranch Baptist Church in Coppell, Tx.  The address is 1501 E. Beltline Rd., Coppell, TX.  

I am so sorry for those of you who have lost a treasured friend.  As we go through life, I think we have always thought our friends would live for ever. . . but as reality sinks in, we are coming to the realization not a single one of us are as invincible as we have always thought we are!  Don't let a day go by without telling the people you love that you love them.  Don't make them wonder . . .   We are not guaranteed the next second!  

I pray that each of you have a wonderful Christmas filled with love and tons of new fantastic memories!

I love you guys!
