Thank you, Elsa! We do have so many sweet memories!
Dear Chris, please accept my heartfelt sympathy and condolences for the loss of your sister. May God give you and your family comfort, inner peace, and strength during this difficult time. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Psalm 147: 3 (Amplified Bible)
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds (healing their pain and comforting their sorrow).
Thank you very much for the Cafe posts, and your generosity, even during this challenging time.
May God bless you and your family.
Thanks so much Roseline, that Scripture is so beautiful and true! I appreciate you kind words and you taking the time to encourage us! 🥰
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Sister, Chris. I will pray for comfort and peace in the coming months and that the wonderful memories soon come first. I love looking at your beautiful posts and was so thrilled to see a picture of Lindsay and Nick's adorable little ones this time. Lindsay's parents were dear friends and I love that you share so many stories about your children and Grandchildren. We actually met at a shower we gave in G'boro years ago when Lindsay and Nick were getting married. Take care and thanks for the delicious recipes!
Take care,
Theresa
I do remember you, Theresa and how you loved Lindsay so well đź’• Thanks so much for taking the time to reach out with this kind comment. Hopefully, our paths will meet again!
Dear Chris - So very sorry to hear about your sister. I remember posts from months ago where she visited you (along with other sisters, I believe) and you all cooked and laughed together. Those wonderful memories and your faith in God will take you through these difficult days.
I, along with many of my friends, so appreciate you and your wonderful posts. In fact, recently a small "pod" of us had dinner together and we were all talking about how we defer to the Cafe for our nightly meal inspirations. You have saved us during these stay at home times.
God bless you, Scott and your lovely family.
Your Friend in the Adirondacks
Thank you, Judi,
You have a great memory. We were all together in the fall of 2019 and had a ball. Little did we know that was the last time. It's a wonderful but bittersweet memory.
Thanks for your kind words of encouragement. They mean a lot! đź’•
SWEET! Love seeing those 2 adorable children. Yummy cookie post is awesome too! So sweet that Chris and Scott have you on board!
Praying for them as they return to The Cafe! It was great that Nick got to go along to Dana's memorial. I've passed the blue house on Brick several times this last week ....fond memories!
Hope to see you all soon.
Life is short! Love to you all!
Thanks, Patti đź’• It was wonderful having Nick there! Yes, we hope to see you soon too and have a few 3-muskateer adventures!
