Our family has been going through some more tough times.  My dad, Bill Orr, has been diagnosed with cancer (Sept 25th) and was admitted to hospice Monday Oct 27th.  The cancer is all through his body and brain.  He is doing okay now but has lost the use of his left hand and is very unsteady while walking.  He has become forgetful and hard to care for at home so the hospice is the best place for him to get the care he needs and we can just be family around him.  It seems to be a fast growing cancer that the doctors were unable to help with Chemo or Radiation.

Please add us to your prayers as we go through this awful path again.

When I laid there beside you,
Could you feel me there?
My arms were wrapped around you,
And I was stroking your hair.

I was talking about all the good times,
For me they were every single day.
I wanted you to feel love and comfort,
And happy in some way.

I watched your every breath,
And prayed that each one wasn't your last.
The time we got to share together,
Went by too quick...Too fast.

I wanted you to wake up,
Please Honey...Open your eyes.
Tell me this is a nightmare,
And not our goodbyes.

As your last breath grew closer,
We lay there peacefully together.
My heart continually breaking,
Because I wanted you forever.

Then there it was,
Your final breath of air.
I didn't want to believe it,
This is so cruel and not fair.

I held your beautiful face,
And prayed you'd breath again.
I wasn't ready for you to go,
I couldn't admit that this was the end.

But then I realized that you were now in peace,
And not suffering anymore.
You were beginning the life of an Angel,
And your body would no longer be sore.

I held you close and squeezed you tight,
And tried to say goodbye.
I've lost my husband and my number one best friend,
All my heart could do is cry.

I slowly got up,
I wanted so much to stay.
I leaned over and gave you one more kiss,
It was so hard to walk away.

Randy you are my entire world,
And I miss you so very much.
I wish I could feel your loveable cuddle,
And your soft and gentle touch.

But for now I have to wait,
Until we meet again.
You will always be in my heart and thoughts,
My dear love and best friend.

Always and Forever,
Our hearts will always touch.
Always and Forever,
Your wife loves you so much.

We send you our love in these green balloons. 

Prayers for those who are in heaven. 

Love and miss you so much Randy. 

Kim, Dan, Andrew and Matthew
