This is my story of losing Suzi. It was difficult to write. We only get one shot at life, and we don’t get to choose or change the ending. No matter how much you love someone, when it’s time to say goodbye you have to be prepared to say the word—goodbye! It’s a hard thing, even when you firmly believe it’s a see-you-later kind of goodbye. Death is no longer something final. That all changed when our Lord Jesus died on the Cross. Knowing that truth kept me holding it all together as I helped Suzi down the painful path to where I turned her over to God for safe keeping. I loved Suzi enough to marry her three times and, in the end, it wasn’t enough. I still lost the girl. The good part is that, with the truth of Christ’s promise to sustain me, losing Suzi is a sadness I can bear. The pain is still there, but there’s also a joy in knowing Suzi is waiting for me to join her. That joy is available to anyone who has faith in Him. This is the story of our journey together thus far.John
Great story of John and Suzi’s life. A life filled with much Joy and some times of great sorrow. Losing those we love and being left behind is so difficult... you do want to remember them and desire that your memory of them and times spent together doesn’t fade ! Holy Spirit, the comforter is so real as we trust him with our pain,grief and loss...only those who have experienced loss fully understand, John’s book will bring wisdom and comfort to those who will follow, in years to come, with personal loss in their lives... Suzi’s memory and purpose will continue on and ministry will take place in lives of many who will read this book... Thank you, John for working and spending your time to bring your story to us.
