Wife of Bill (James), Mother
of Cathie, Nurse for AT&T, Friend of many
Who believed that
Jesus died for all people, who believed that God would give people the strength
to follow and pursue their dreams and goals in His will, who gave much to the
cause of Christ in strength and resources
Who entered the field
of nursing and succeeded when doctors scoffed at her desire, who encouraged her
daughter in every endeavor she undertook, who loved her husband and daughter
without reservation, who kept Jesus first so she could love others better
because of it
Who feared that her
daughter would die or just give up because of her physical limitations, who
feared that her own death would leave deep an irreparable hole in the hearts
and lives of her husband and daughter
Who opened her home
to missionaries and traveling ministers, who had wanted to be a missionary
herself but was denied the opportunity, who sought a way to help reach the
children of two neighborhoods with the Gospel of Christ
Who wanted Christ to
be exalted in her life despite the debilitating illness that she faced much of her life , who wanted to study the
Word and draw closer to Jesus, who wanted God to use her despite her
imperfections.
