The Way of a Bride with Her Groom
Author: Ernest Witmer
Publisher: WestBow Press

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The text was simple that portentous Tuesday morning: "Please pray for us, we've been hit by a truck." It came from my daughter, Kristi, as I was entering the Wal-Mart there in Canon City, Colorado, where I was waiting for Rachel to arrive. We had planned to help Asher, Teresa, and her family prepare for their wedding in just four days. But, out of nowhere, a hulking Dodge Ram pickup came crashing through the driver's door, right into the delicate body of my wife. It was 10:40, the morning of November 6, 2012. Nothing could have prepared me for what lay ahead. Rachel and I had seldom talked about what it would be like to lose each other. We had filed an official will with the Griffith Law Office in International Falls, Minnesota, many years before. We had both outlined basic funeral plans as well, and she had updated hers just the year before in 2011. But to actually try to imagine what such a scenario would be like it just wasn't something we wanted to do."
