My Sister Has Passed Away

A few years back I passed a prayer request that my sister was dying & could people please pray, well she did pass away on May 10, 2012.
I & my older sister are planning her memorial on Sat May 26, 2012 at our Church & I am hoping that my Pastor can be used to minister to people who do not know the Lord.
My sister does not attend Church & so has left it into my hand to arrange the order of service & reception. I will be the the MC, announcing who will speak, & also offering thanks at the end on behalf of the family.
We picked up my sisters ashes from the funeral home on Friday & my sister is really having a hard time with this as she is an atheist & so can not find comfort as others do.
Interesting to talk to my older sister & discover that she had a different relationship to my sister than I did (obviously) and I found that interesting.
God is just & he will do what is right.

Pray that something good will come of this circumstance.
Here is the obituary.

I go back to hibernation.

Praying this event can bring healing and be an opportunity for Christ's name to be glorified.
