In loving memory

We got the news this week that a fellow crafter and Prim Mart sister, Kat passed away from breast cancer. It was a long road for her with chemo treatments and being sick, things just went downhill so quickly.

All week, my Prim Mart sisters have been emailing about our loss - we all spent a couple of weekends together at convention. We shared happy, smiling memories - which quickly turned to tears. Kat and her mom came to convention together and we are so sad for Maggie who has lost a child. We are sad for Kat's husband, children, grandchildren, her extended family and all of her Prim Mart sisters who are missing her so much.

Cancer is so ugly, it sneaks up and steals life so quickly. I continue to pray that we will find a cure.

We have decided to donate the 10% we've raised so far to Kat's family. We will continue to fundraise for other charitable organizations but at this time, doing this just feels right to both of us.
