Aunt Joel died yesterday afternoon after a long struggle against
infection following the perforated appendix. Hugh and David watched over
her care and Jack stayed in close contact from Paris. The love we share
as a family continues as she exits this life and enters the unknown.
Paul Clayton
She was a uniquely accepting person who seemed to
always have a happy outlook on life, no matter what burdens fell on her.
Rob Clayton
Oh no, what a heartbreak. You are so right about her, Paul. She was a nurturer.
Mark Clayton
A generous and loving spirit.
Dear Sally,
Unfortunately Joel could not recover from the side effects of her ruptured appendix. Her body and her doctors made valiant efforts but the infections could not be controlled. One of the few things her son was able to hear her say during the two weeks she was in the ICU was, 'I want to go home.' I think perhaps she may have been saying that she was tired of the fight and just wanted to continue her journey to her Eternal Home.
So she stepped through the door that was opened to her and was welcomed into the Everlasting Arms.
We Are Blessed, ellie
