A life cut short.,...

It has been a hard couple of days. Yesterday my Dad called to tell me that my cousin Jackie had passed away during the night. When her husband woke up and she was gone.. She was 28 years old and raising 3 kids. Her and her husband had 1 child together but she has state custody of her sisters 2 kids. Her baby is only 3! What a great lady she was. She has worked so hard the last few years to but herself through school while dealing with many appointments and raising 3 young kids. She just finished her 1st year of teaching elementary school. Five years ago we had to bury her mom and now this, my heart is breaking for her husband, kids, dad and sisters. I think my biggest concern is for our grandmother who is 82 years old and after burying her husband & daughter, burying her grand daughter may be more than she can do....Why do we have to lose she good young people? I do know that she just had a GREAT reunion with her mom....
