Bernice "Becky" Knudsen February 11, 1916 - July 31, 2008

This morning my Grandmother went home to be with the Lord. What a glorious day for her!


Her health has been failing for quite a while and we thought that she was not going to make it back in March. She pulled through, then 7 weeks ago she fell and broke her hip. Not a good thing for someone who is 92 years old. She had surgery to pin her hip in place so that she was not in so much pain then went to rehab for a few weeks. She came home July 9 from rehab and was well....being Grandma. :) She started failing quickly in the past week and a half slipped into a coma and we waited and watched all week, praying the Lord would take her home. Everyone was able to say good-bye to her. The kids would go in and visit with her laughing and giggling in her room which she loved to hear. It was also very hard for a few of them to watch her, but a good thing to watch and see how peacefully she died.

We are heading to CT next week for her funeral. Please pray for the family and others that will be there who will be hearing about the Lord, please pray that their hearts will be open to hear what is being shared. Most of my family are believers and it will be a wonderful celebration of her life.

Good-bye Grandma you will be missed! I love you...
