Paul W. "Bear" Bryant once said.....

"There ought to be a special place in Heaven for Coaches' wives" and I know, without a doubt, that my friend Keri is looking down from Heaven today!.....even if she was a big Mississippi State fan. :)

On July 27th 2009, Keri (whose husband coaches with my husband) suffered a massive heart attack, at the age of 34. She was on a respirator for five weeks, had numerous surgeries and it was just a complete roller coaster ride, but the Lord was working miracles through her the entire time! She went home to be with our Lord and Savior on Monday, August 31st, 2009. Today is a sad day. She left behind a 5 year old and a 9 month old (at the time).

Below is the last picture that I took with Keri at the football banquet in 2008.  

Me, Kim (the head coach's wife aka Mrs. Gu), and Keri

"This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it" - Psalm 118:24

So, even though my heart is heavy today, I AM REJOICING!

I ask for your prayers today for Keri's family and friends! Thank you!
