We wanted to update you on our Aunt Willie. Aunt Willie passed away and made her journey to heaven on July 4th 2009. While this brings us great sadness at the loss of our Aunt, and more than we can imagine to my Uncle and Cousins, we acknowledge that she is now with the Lord and no longer in pain from her illness of this world.
As Madison has said, it is fitting that she go on the 4th of July, because while we are celebrating our freedoms and liberties, Aunt Willie is now free from her pain and her hospital bed. Words cannot express what she meant to us or added to our lives. We were blessed to have her in our lives.
We want to bring honor to her, and share her with others by our Cases for Cheer, and we intend on taking this as far as wide as we can, starting locally with UC Davis Cancer Center. If you are willing or interested in helping, please email us at casesforcheer@gmail.com . We can give you the information you are needing from there.
Also if you would like to make the pillowcases but are unsure how, we will be offering a class once a month to take you through the steps to create these cases in the pattern necessary for donation under our Cases for Cheer Donation and Sewing Guidelines.
The angels are singing, for they are receiving one of the best! God Bless You all, and hold your families near and tight.
A young girl's quest to bring cheer to cancer patients one at a time by creating vibrant homemade pillow cases to take with them to chemo treatments and hospital stays, in honor of our Aunt Willie Garrett.
