Share "A" memory? Impossible. There are so many!
- Attending Calvary Chapel, Chico, CA with the Youngs
- Sprawling with Jeff on the cool data center floor at Chico State while waiting for our programs to compile and run
- Mountain biking Deer Creek Canyon outside of Chico
- Talking each other into taking international work assignments
- Diving off the 60 foot cliffs into that tiny little deep spot in the creek at Pinnacles NP
- Being in each other's weddings (And his bachelor party? What a blast!)
- Time together in prayer
- Being there when Jeff and Caroleen first got Aaron
- Food and "fast UNO" at the Youngs
- Becky's cookies! Oh, wait, this is about Jeff... well he did always arrange to get 'em for me
- Knowing that if Jeff wasn't there to push me, I might not have completed the Computer Science program at Chico State (I think my ribs are still sore from him elbowing me to keep me awake in class following all-nighters in the data center. He was always awake because his programs ran better!)
- Snowed in at CHRISTmas with the Youngs at our farm in Missouri
- etc.
And, though the memories are important, most importantly is the future, where I know we'll see Jeff again, healthy, with the body God originally intended for him... all because of his abiding faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! I look forward to that day.
