It is sad, how one day, a person can be here and then gone the next day.

A woman from my church died last about a week and a half ago. She was 41 years old. She left behind four children. And four grandchildren. I remember last seeing her at the Wic Office at the Health Department. She was staring at me very hard almost the whole time, until they called my number for me to go into the Wic office cubicle. And she was staring at me very hard at the church in June of 2009. She was coming down the church's foyer and she was staring at me. She made me feel so uncomfortable, that I took my kids and put all of them in the car. I did not personally know her. But my husband was good friends with her. The would laugh and joke together all of the time. I think that she may have spoken to me. But she hardly ever said anything to me. My husband attended the funeral, but I did not go. No one never said how she died. The newspaper report said that she died at home. I was told that before her death, she was very stressed out about some personal issues that her son was involved in. Out of respect for her death, I will not mention what it was. I think that stress killed her. She was always at the church cleaning, driving the buses and helping out at the church in many activities. It really bothers me, because I don't understand how can a healthy individual just die for no reason. I don't know if she had any health conditions that could have contributed to her death. It is a mystery how she died. It is especially strange to me, because I have just seen her in June and July of last year. I was also told that her mom died in October of last year. That could have amounted to her stress as well. It is very scary when you know someone and have been around them, and then all of a suddenly they just die. Life is very short, it really is. Our church have lost more members this year too. I wonder how many more will be deceased before this year is out with. It is like God is picking flowers one by one.
